Docker Tutorial For Beginners - How To Containerize Python Applications

In this Docker Tutorial I show how to get started with Docker for your Python Scripts and Python Web Apps. We look at two different projects and build Docker Containers for a Python script and for a web application using FastAPI (works the same for Flask). This also demonstrates how to dockerize a virtual environment.

Can't say thank you enough. Articulate Straight-forward, logical explanations! Great job.

I think this is the best explanation for Docker. Other You-tubers wasted 2 hours to explain stupidity. This was the best hands-on-experience. You understand the working architecture directly by interacting with containers. Cheers #Python Engineer

Excellent tutorial on Dockerizing Python application. Please do another tutorial on Kubernetes too.

Dude. I have been STRUGGLING for 3 days trying download a file from a website using Playwright. Thanks to this tutorial I’m able to download my file into my container. Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial.

Thank you, I've watched so many videos and this is the only one so far that has almost made docker make sense for me. I'm an apprentice for context and a very inexperienced programmer so it has been a nightmare trying to find information I can understand. Thanks!

"FROM python:3.8" gave me an error... but "FROM python:3.8-slim-buster" works.
EXCELLENT tutorial, thanks!

[Gadgetoholic]

Kudos to you for the FAST API part... you should maybe include it in the title ;) It would bring me here much faster. Danke shon!

I am getting started in using Docker and your tutorial was really helpful. Well explained, straight to the point with easy decomposed steps to follow ! Thank you for your work !

[sanjaybhatikar]

Thank you, this video clarified all manner of questions I had while deploying my FastAPI as Docker container on Raspberry Pi 4. This video of yours is a gem! Thank you so much for getting this knowledge out.

22:16mins of my life definetly not wasted. Thx a lot !

[babarbaig]

Thanks for an awesome tutorial. For first time in recent memory, I was able to follow the video step-by-step, reproduce it, and get a running docker.
Yes there were some configuration issues with my Python installation. More issues with VS code linter complaining about missing packages: random, and requests. But those were Python and VS Code issues, not Docker issues. I know enough about Python and VS Code, that with Google searches I was able to resolve those issues and continue with the tutorial.

Went through tons of documentation and youtube videos then finally found your video. Thanks a lot, Patrick. You just saved me. Awesome video. Keep up the excellent work.😇
