New to Docker, where to start?

I am interested in Docker, on Windows Server 2016.
Obvious question is... why? I don't mean that to sound like Docker is bad, but Docker is really not meant for IT, but rather for developers. You can use it in IT, but given that the obvious use cases aren't real strong, this doesn't give us a good guess as to what about it is interesting you and what you are looking to learn about it.

Its because its a cool technology which I am interested in. Do you know of any docker specific forums? Perhaps this will be more useful in that space...
I do keep typing 'dicker' rather than 'docker'. Its amusing.

I think your biggest challenge will be just how new Docker is on Windows. I tend to type docket instead of Docker. We talked about Docker at MangoCon 2017

What particular area was discussed?
Very general, but looking at how Docker and LXC differed in technology and intent.

Yep, cant say i've heard of LXC.

LOL, LXC is the big container leader. Docker is just tacked onto it. Docker is LXC under the hood.
-
Lots of us use LXC, it's the container product for IT use mostly. Docker is more for developer use. Of course both can use both, but there are design intents and ecosystem assumptions.
-
With LXC, it's far easier to use (you can learn it in like five minutes tops) and you get a full log in, so you don't have to worry about how to deploy. You can carry over a lot of traditional IT knowledge. It feels more like traditional virtualization.

Not anymore. They dropped LXC around 2 years ago. They wrote their own library in Go called libcontainer.

Had to to be able to port to Windows.
