• All my Udemy course coupon codes: bretfisher.com/courses
• Docker Mastery (with Kubernetes, Swarm, Compose, and more)
• Kubernetes Mastery (go deeper in K8s)
• Docker for Node.js (learn advanced ways to use local Docker with Node.js projects)
• Swarm Mastery (learn more about Docker's built-in orchestrator)
• More DevOps courses coming!

My examples and templates (ordered from new to old)

• httping - Ping with HTTP. Fantastic for testing zero-downtime rolling updates.
• jekyll - Jekyll in a container.
• vackup - Docker Volume backup and restore.
• browncoat - A utility container for simulating failures like slow startup, failing healthchecks, etc.
