Manage Docker containers and images. Some subcommands such as docker run have their own usage documentation. More information: <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/>.

• List all docker containers (running and stopped):
  docker ps --all
• Start a container from an image, with a custom name:
  docker run --name container_name image
• Start or stop an existing container:
  docker start|stop container_name
• Pull an image from a docker registry:
  docker pull image
• Display the list of already downloaded images:
  docker images
• Open a shell inside a running container:
  docker exec -it container_name sh
• Remove a stopped container:
  docker rm container_name
• Fetch and follow the logs of a container:
  docker logs -f container_name
