Adds all 8 ROOT 04 modules (why containers exist, images & containers, Docker CLI, container networking, container storage, Dockerfile & image build, Docker Compose, containers → Kubernetes) — 43 activities, using the nested Docker Engine Phase 6D built and tested. Modules 1, 2, and 8 are conceptual (no lab by design) — the honest bridge module (M8) explicitly names what Kubernetes adds beyond what this course already taught, without re-teaching Kubernetes itself. Adds 5 new hands-on Docker scenarios plus 2 MCQs, all against the real nested Docker Engine: docker-cli-basics (run/exec/inspect a real container), docker-container-networking (a genuine "works internally, unreachable from host" port-publishing failure, diagnosed and fixed by recreating the container with the correct `-p` flag), docker-container-storage (a real destroy/recreate cycle proving named-volume persistence, not just described), docker-build-image (a real Dockerfile, a real build, a real custom image run), and docker-compose-multiservice (a real two-service Compose application with a real published port). All tested end-to-end via the real scenario-validation API, including negative tests. Wires rootnode-containers-assessment (2 required + 4 random-draw scenarios) using the existing Phase 3B assessment engine. This completes the entire ROOT_ Foundations sequence (ROOT 01-04) — see docs/PHASE6E_ROOT_FOUNDATIONS_COMPLETION.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <[email protected]>

# Reflection: You Built a Real Image, Not Just Ran Someone Else's
|
|
|
|
## Reflection questions
|
|
|
|
1. Every image you used before this module (nginx, alpine) was built by someone else, from a
|
|
Dockerfile you never saw. Does writing your own change how you think about those images?
|
|
2. Which Dockerfile instruction do you expect to use the most in real application work?
|
|
|
|
## Real Ops takeaway
|
|
|
|
**A Dockerfile is executable documentation of exactly how an application's environment is
|
|
built — the same reproducibility promise ROOT 03's version control made about code, now applied
|
|
to environments.** You've closed the loop this course opened with Module 1's "it works on my
|
|
machine" problem: a Dockerfile means the environment itself is defined, versioned, and
|
|
rebuildable identically anywhere, by anyone, forever.
|
|
|
|
This module is complete. Continue to the next module.

## Instructor Notes
|
|
|
|
**Discussion questions for a live classroom:** question 1 is a good moment to reflect on the
|
|
"black box → understood mechanism" arc of this entire course.
|
|
|
|
**Approximate timing:** 5-8 minutes live discussion; 5 minutes self-paced writing.
