Scaffolding of Dockerfiles and scripts to build and run your Docker containers
To assist developers getting started, and those developers already using docker with the appropriate Dockerfile and associated scripts to build and run your docker containers. This yeoman generator will prompt you with a few questions, asking your development language and target container host. Two files will be added to the directory

###Installing yo docker on Mac###
-
Install NodeJs
-
Install Yo by running the following command from the Terminal:

From the directory of your project, run the Docker generator:
yo docker
###Installing yo docker on Windows### Coming soon
While you can install the same yo docker tools above for the mac, the scripts generated are bash scripts. We are working on generating .cmd scripts as a Windows Developer would expect.
###Contributing to yo docker### We are planning to make yo docker open sourced, accepting pull requests. stay tuned
##Getting Started Samples## For those looking for some simple Hello World samples for GOLang, NodeJS and soon ASP.NET, you can download these:
These samples do NOT yet have the Docker assets added. The idea is you would use yo docker to enhance these.
###NodeJS Hello World Sample###
To use the NodeJS sample
- In the root directory execute:
npm installto restore the node packages - to get nodemon support, execute:
sudo npm install -g nodemon - to start the app with nodemon, execute:
