Awesome-Compose: Application samples for project development kickoff
Software systems have become quite complex nowadays. A system may consist of several distributed services, each one providing a specific functionality and being updated independently. Starting the development of a project of such complexity is sometimes time consuming, in particular when you are not already familiar with the software stack you are going to work on. This may be because, most of the time, we need to follow rigorous steps to put together the entire project and if we make a mistake in-between, we may have to start all over again.

First Docker GitHub Action is here!
We are happy to announce that today Docker has released its first Github Action! We’ve been working with GitHub, looking into how developers have been using GitHub Actions with Docker to set up their CI/CD workflows. The standard flows you’ll see if you look around are what you’d expect: building an image, tagging it, logging into Hub, and pushing the image. This is the workflow we’ve aimed to support with our Docker build-push action.

From here, we can get the application running locally in a few seconds with a single `docker-compose up` command.

Docker Donates the cnab-to-oci Library to cnab.io
Docker helped with the development of all those components, but also worked with Microsoft on the cnab-to-oci library for sharing a CNAB bundle. This library is now used at least by 3 tools: Docker App, Porter and duffle, but also internally in Docker Hub. It successfully demonstrated how to push, pull and share description of a CNAB bundle on a registry. This work will be used as a base for the future CNAB Registries specification.

Changes to dockerproject.org APT and YUM repositories
While many people know about Docker, not that many know its history and where it came from. Docker was started as a project in the dotCloud company, founded by Solomon Hykes, which provided a PaaS solution. The project became so successful that dotCloud renamed itself to Docker, Inc. and focused on Docker as its primary product.

How We Solved a Report on docker-compose Performance on macOS Catalina
As a Docker Compose maintainer, my daily duty is to check for newly reported issues and try to help users through misunderstanding and possible underlying bugs. Sometimes issues are very well documented, sometimes they are nothing much but some “please help” message. And sometimes they look really weird and can result in funny investigations. Here is the story…
