r/docker is a subreddit with 280k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is huge in size, and has high activity.
Docker is an open-source project to easily create lightweight, portable, self-sufficient containers from any application. The same container that a developer builds and tests on a laptop can run at scale, in production, on VMs, bare metal, OpenStack clusters, public clouds and more.
