How does it work?
With the help of Carina, a Docker Swarm cluster is created just for you, running Jupyter in a Docker container. It's populated with a number of Jupyter notebooks where you can interact directly with your Docker Swarm cluster and learn Docker all from the comfort of your web browser. So is it magic? Nope, just massively abusing cool stuff for fun and profit.

I've always loved Code School. Learning a new language without having to install anything on my machine, configure my development environment or deal with the differences between operating systems. One day I took Safia's data analytics workshop and got my first taste of what Jupyter can do and decided to use it to teach Docker.
