Docker is a method of virtualization on an application level.

You host a container platform on your computer and this allows you to utilise containers.

Example of Containers are applications such as

Plex Sonarr Pihole

Each container is a ‘complete’ platform with all the dependencies included - your container platform supplies Disk/CPU/Ram and network for the Container to function.

Containers can be based on operating systems that are different to your computer.

Using containers mean you have a very easy way of trying an Application without installing to your native operating system.

Let us know if you have a NAS /PC /Server and we can tailor the answer further.

I’ve always been too lazy to look up the reason for the change of name. Today I did: https://www.linux.com/news/ethereal-changes-name-wireshark/

TLDR: Authors previous employer trademarked the Ethereal name on the Authors behalf, the author moved jobs and couldn’t negotiate the transfer to him - thus Wireshark was born.

Noob here too.
