Pull and run an image

Here are step-by-step instructions to show how to pull a simple and small Docker image and run it as a container:

Steps

Step 1: Set up Docker

• Make sure Docker is installed on your computer. You can download and install Docker Desktop from the official Docker website (https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop).

Step 2: Open a Terminal or Command Prompt

• Open a terminal or command prompt on your computer.

Step 3: Pull the Docker Image

• In the terminal, type the following command to pull a Docker image from Docker Hub:

docker pull hello-world

• Docker will automatically download the "hello-world" image from the official Docker Hub repository.

Step 4: Verify the Image

• Once the image is downloaded, you can verify it by running the following command:

docker images

• You should see the "hello-world" image listed in the output.

Step 5: Run the Docker Container

• To run the image as a container, use the following command:

docker run hello-world

• Docker will create a container from the "hello-world" image and execute it.

• The container will print a "Hello from Docker!" message, confirming that everything is working correctly.

Step 6: Clean up (optional)

• If you want to remove the container, you can use the following command:

docker rmi hello-world
