Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "As an alternative to the Azure portal, you can use the az command line to manage the DevTest lab."

A block of code is set as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <appSettings configSource="config\appSettings.config" />
  <connectionStrings configSource="config\connectionStrings.config" />
</configuration>

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

> docker version

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "You need to select Switch to Windows containers... before you do anything else"
