Exploring Docker

miscellaneous

I have always seen Docker being talked about in the Linux community and have seen it as one of the DigitalOcean quick app install options. I had no idea what it was and did not realize it’s function. Docker is actually a container technology designed to improve efficiency. Traditional virtual machines house their own guest operating system and libraries to run an application. As one can see, if there is a large number of virtual machines running their own operating system, the workflow is inefficient.

Setup FOSSASIA's Orga Server

open-event

Today, I will be teaching you how to locally setup the open event orga server which manages all the data of an event. I will let you know the exact process I went through. Step 1: Fork and clone the repository Make sure you clone the repository from Github into your default folder. You should also fork the repository if you are thinking of contributing to it. Cloning the repository first is much easier since there is a preset Vagrantfile.
