History of 2020-03-02 PostgreSQL on Docker

2020-03-02
		21:10 UTC Revision 1 . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Lately, I’ve been experimenting with PostgreSQL a lot. It is of course convenient to be able to set up a temporary database to play around. I didn’t want to do it directly on my laptop. One solution was to use Virtualbox (with Vagrant). This is a nice way, and it is even apparently officially supported. (Go to the linked wiki page to learn about various possible reasons why you might want to run PostgreSQL in a VM.) However, I also wanted to try something different. I am completely new to Docker, and I figured that setting up PostgreSQL in Docker would be a good way to start introducing myself to this technology.
