Docker Hub
Docker Hub is a cloud-based repository service that allows users to store, share, and manage Docker container images. It serves as a centralised platform where developers can publish their containerised applications and find pre-built images for various technologies. Users can pull images from public repositories or create private ones for team collaboration. Docker Hub simplifies container distribution, enabling efficient application deployment across different environments.
The Falcons will be hosting its in house boot2root docker images on Docker Hub. We're currently compiling our repo for uploading and a link will be available with a multitude of challenges for all levels of experiences shortly.
