Though it's the common use case, deploying your application using docker - or even just using docker to power your local development stack - may seem a bit daunting at first. And it may require some changes you're not yet ready, or able, to make. But if you want to get started with docker, there are plenty of uses that aren't deployment.

In this 99% Yak-Shaving™ Free session, we'll focus on the ones that require little (or no) setup, and build a solid understanding of docker itself. These day-to-day use cases will make you docker confident, and ready to tackle things like deployment with docker in the future.

Bring your laptop, and you'll be using some of them before I stop talking. And if you find the docker vrs virtual machine distinction a little fuzzy, don't worry - this talk will start by clearing that right up, and do it with sock puppets.

This was an incredible talk. I'm a newly minted php dev so I have no idea what's going on but the presentation was expertly well crafted and very engaging. Bravo!

Both the presentation and the content were a real mind-shift. It's something I'll be telling others about for sure.

Excellent information on docker - plenty of meat packed into 30 minutes. Great job!

Compelling, high-energy talk that serves as a solid intro to Docker for devs who may not have ever worked with it. Plus, sock puppets and the most incredible slide deck I've ever seen!

By far the nest Docker intro I've ever seen. Also the sickest slides I've ever seen.

Good info for even seasoned Docker users

Very engaging talk; use of puppets made things more interesting. I tried writing commands along with the presentation, so I feel like I learned a lot.
