The Docker containers are seen as a way to virtualize an environment for the developer to work with and aim to create an environment separate from your original machine, ie you virtualize this environment in Docker so that the changes you make on the original machine does not interfere with your Docker environment.

But Docker also speeds up the development a lot, you can just log on to their website and download the image you want to work with, you install it very easily and you don’t have to do all the configuration that would take a lot of time, because most of it already comes configured you just arrow some parameters and ready to use quietly.
