The Docker commands

This section contains reference information on using Docker’s command line client. Each command has a reference page along with samples. If you are unfamiliar with the command line, you should start by reading about how to “Use the Docker command line”.

You start the Docker daemon with the command line. How you start the daemon affects your Docker containers. For that reason you should also make sure to read the daemon reference page.
