Summary

In this chapter, we reviewed what makes up a container, how to store and share containers on the internet, and some of the commands you can use to create your own containers. We then used that knowledge to walk through an example in Python and another in Node.js, creating simple web-based services in both, building those into container images, and running them within Kubernetes. In our next chapter, we will dive deeper into how to interact with your code once it's been packaged into a container and will explore tips for taking full advantage of containers and Kubernetes during your development.
