All the documentation I've found thus far either:<br>
<br>
A) Makes assumptions about your environment, then fails to describe how to translate concepts to other environments<br>
B) Assumes you're already well versed in the basics, so starts at 80MPH<br>
C) Was written in 2014 or earlier<br>
<br>
I understand the concept, and I appreciate *why* containers are fundamentally different than VMs, I just want to be able to actually "Dockerize" an application.<br>
<br>
I just want a MySQL container, a uWSGI/Django container, and an Nginx container, but how do I go about getting those? How do I get my code into that container? Is anyone a docker expert or does anyone have a "0 to 45MPH docker crash course?" I'm not looking for full out enterprise-ready production, here. Just want to learn enough to get my app off the ground on my own docker host, then understand enough to push it up into something like AWS ECS or something.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
