Hi everyone (including those that will see this later)
My name is Solomon Eseme and I'm the author of the "Docker: The Definitive Guide in 2023"
First, I want to personally thank you "Idoubtit" for reading through the piece and sharing your personal review.
I will only try to share my views here and hope it helps clarify things a little.
Firstly, the intention of target audience of the book is for beginners to Docker and as your progress in the chapters, you can see some other concepts that intermediate can benefit from.
Secondly, I also understand that the book is long and a lengthy book sometimes could contain unwanted parts or noise but this is because of my style of writing. I want to tell a story when I'm writing a "Definitive Guide". I don't want it to be like an "How to" guide or "Overview of" kind of article.
Thirdly, when you say "copying from Docker commercial" that's not entirely true because you could see that I give proper credit to every source and I didn't go in-depth into some topics because at that stage in the reader's mind, It will be confusing since the target is beginners there's no need talking about Docker Swarm or Networks at that point.
Next, the comparison part is simple and straightforward, my intention wasn't to show comparison but to inform the reader that there are other containerization implementation out there and these are their market share. Coming from the point where I said that Docker is the most popular, the Market share diagram helps compliment that.
Of course, I understand that the article can be improved, It could be made better and also, I could be better in writing and passing points across.
I also, I understand that the title "Docker: The Definitive Guide in 2023" could be misleading. But if you look at the chapter 4. I indicated that there is an Advanced Copy of this book.
I even said "Let me know in the comments section. I will share it with you."
I'm currently working on the Advanced part that will include everything I have listed in the chapter 4.
I hope this helps clarify somethings. I'm still learning, I'm still improving and I really appreciate you for giving these feedbacks.
