The document discusses Docker and containers. It explains that Docker manages containers which share the host system's kernel and are isolated from each other. Containers have fast boot times and low overhead. Docker images are templates used to create containers. The document demonstrates how to build a web application using Docker images, Docker Compose to define and run multi-container applications, and Docker Machine to provision virtual machines for development. It shows how containers can be used to develop applications incrementally and focus on software development.
