Came here to ask why you'd want to run an app in docker. Genuinely don't get it. Sure the app doesn't touch the host system so there's isolation there, but the extra overhead doesn't seem justified to me. I'm not docker expert, so correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this running a striped down version of Linux to run the app? Lighter than a full VM but... Yeah I don't get it.
