# Welcome to [Slidev](https://github.com/slidevjs/slidev)!
# Demystifying Docker
This repo is a work in progress documenting my upcoming presentation for Scenic City Summit 2025. This repo is currently split into 2 parts.
To start the slide show:
## Slide Deck presentaiton
The slides folder contains my slide deck for the event. To view the presentation:
- `pnpm install`
- `pnpm dev`
- visit <http://localhost:3030>
```shell
cd slides
yarn
yarn dev
```
Once everything is done it should open a browser window to http://localhost:3030. I am using [slidev](https://sli.dev) for the slide deck. All of the "slides" are in a single markdown file in the slides directory.
## Code examples
The examples folder contains several Docker examples.
`examples/fullstack` is a basic example containing a backend NodeJS application with a React frontend as well as a Postgres Database. The project is set up so that you can do all development in dev containers. The `node_modules` folder for the backend is isolated from your host system and only exists inside the running container. For this reason, you will need to use a devcontainer in order to be able to get things like Intellisense and typings.
Edit the [slides.md](./slides.md) to see the changes.
Learn more about Slidev at the [documentation](https://sli.dev/).

docker compose up
```
The first time you run `docker compose up` it may take a few minutes as Docker will need to build images for the frontend and backend. Also there are some database migrations and seed data that need to happen. Those are handled by `backend/dev-entrypoint.sh`. This is handled for you automatically since it is baked into the image. You will most likely need to run `sudo docker compose up` or add yourself to the privileged `docker` group (`sudo usermod -aG docker YOUR_USER`) in order for `Traefik` to bind to port 80.

Once everything is up you should be able to access the frontend at [http://app.docker.localhost:8888]() and the backend at [http://app.docker.localhost:8888/api]()

## Developing
When running the `compose` stack, the backend node_modules are isolated from your host system. This is common in dev environment setups. In this case it is advised to use a Dev container. The following video demonstrates starting a dev container by using the VSCode plugin.

### Proxying and routes
You will notice that the backend is listening on `http://0.0.0.0:3333/` but the frontend is making requests to `/api/`. This is designed to mimic how you would deploy something like this in production where the backend would be behind a reverse proxy. Traefik has some really nice middleware that allows us to easily tell it to route requests destined for `/api` to `/`. The bit that handles that are these labels:

## Containers vs Virtual Machines
| Feature | VM | Container |

| Feature | VMs | Containers |

| Boot time | Minutes | Seconds |
| Resource usage | Heavy | Lightweight |
| Isolation | Strong | Process-level |
| Portability | Medium | Very High |
| Operating System | Needs full OS install | Uses host OS/kernel features |
In reality we use containers and vm's together. Containers run inside of VM's for better security and isolation, especially in cloud and multi tenant environments.

## What is Docker?
- A tool to build and run containers
- Written in GO
- Uses Client/Server model with REST API (`docker cli` and `dockerd`)
- Eco system of tools (Compose, Swarm, etc)
- Public Image Registry (Dockerhub)
- Docker client typically runs on same machine as server but doesn't have to

- Docker engine runs containers using Linux features like:
- Uses Linux kernal features like:
- Namespaces
- cgroups
- Union file systems
- Container runs from an image layered with base image and application code
- Containers are just processes

- Created/managed by Docker Daemon.

It is possible to modify the data directly via normal tools but unsupported and can cause unintended side-effects due to the overlayfs storage driver.
An example would be creating a postgres volume for persistent database storage.

## Bind Mounts
- Mounting files/directories from the host machine directly into a container (merged overlayfs layer).
- Processes inside container can modify files on host system.
- Bind mounts are strongly tied to the host
- Best for things like dev containers where you need to mount source code into container and have hot reload, etc.
