What is the difference between a docker-container and a docker-image?

Question

Docker

What is the difference between a docker-container and a docker-image? They write that the image is a class type and the container is a service type. But I still can't see the difference.

Answer 1

An image is a cast consisting of layers of the file system, in other words ..
All layers in the image are read-only.
When you create a container from an image, another layer is layered and you can write to
it. speaking, an image instance is a container with the ability to write something there
. A container can be committed, it will become an image, which means that its top layer, the one where you could write something, will become read only, that's all the magic...
