📄️ Overview
Docker allows you to run Linux applications in isolated environments known as "containers." On Unraid, Docker is the ideal method for deploying and managing a wide variety of applications without concerns about compatibility or system conflicts. This approach transforms your Unraid server into a flexible %%application server|application-server%%, enabling you to run popular apps like Plex, Home Assistant, and many more directly on your system.
📄️ Community Applications
Community Applications provides a curated catalog of over 2,000 free Docker containers and plugins maintained by the Unraid community. Each container or plugin lets your server take on new roles, such as running a media server, dynamic DNS client, or backup solution.
📄️ Managing & customizing containers
This page is written to help users of all skill levels make the most out of Docker containers on Unraid OS. The tips and best practices come from the Unraid team, who ensure they are tailored to most users' needs. However, keep in mind that Docker is constantly evolving, so for the most up-to-date features, advanced configurations, or troubleshooting issues that go beyond what Unraid covers, it's always a good idea to check the official Docker documentation.
