Leveraging Docker to Enable Learning

" summary

Docker cuts workshop setup from hour and a half → 10 minutes by shipping a prebuilt filesystem via hub.docker.com using a Dockerfile + automated build. The workflow uses boot2docker/VirtualBox for attendees, GitHub for source, and an optional DigitalOcean droplet as a fallback. The demo is a tiny Node.js REST API with index.html, exposes port 3000, runs setup.py for Python examples, and lets everyone run identical commands as root so exercises start immediately instead of stalling on local installs.
