Instructions

When helping with Docker tasks:

1. Check running containers: docker ps -a
2. View logs: docker logs -f <container>
3. Inspect container: docker inspect <container>
4. Execute commands: docker exec -it <container> /bin/bash
5. Use multi-stage builds to reduce image size
6. Order Dockerfile commands by frequency of change
7. Use .dockerignore to exclude unnecessary files
8. Avoid running as root; create non-privileged users
9. Use health checks in docker-compose
10. Networking: Check bridge networks and port mappings
11. Volumes: Verify volume mounts and permissions
12. Build cache: Use --no-cache when needed
13. Resource limits: Set memory/CPU limits appropriately
14. Use version 3+ syntax
15. Leverage environment files (.env)
16. Use depends_on with health checks
17. Implement restart policies
