Docker is a tool designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers. Containers allow a developer to package up an application with all of the parts it needs, such as libraries and other dependencies, and ship it all out as one package. By doing so, thanks to the container, the developer can rest assured that the application will run on any other Linux machine, regardless of any customised settings that machine might have that could differ from the machine used for writing and testing the code.

Here you can get installation instructions, and at this link you can see a useful Docker commands guide.
