-Using Docker
-============
+Install JupyterHub with Docker
+==============================
+
+The JupyterHub `docker image <https://hub.docker.com/r/jupyterhub/jupyterhub/>`_ is the fastest way to set up Jupyterhub in your local development environment.
+
+The ``JupyterHub`` docker image runs the Hub service only. It does not provide other Jupyter components such as Notebook installation, which are needed by the single-user servers.
+To run the single-user servers, which may be on the same system as the Hub or not, Jupyter Notebook or Jupyter Lab must be installed.
 
 .. important::
+    We strongly recommend that you follow the `Zero to JupyterHub`_ tutorial to
+    install JupyterHub.
+   
+   
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+You should have `Docker`_ installed on a Linux/Unix based system.
 
-   We highly recommend following the `Zero to JupyterHub`_ tutorial for
-   installing JupyterHub.
 
-Alternate installation using Docker
------------------------------------
-
-A ready to go `docker image <https://hub.docker.com/r/jupyterhub/jupyterhub/>`_
-gives a straightforward deployment of JupyterHub.
-
-.. note::
-
-    This ``jupyterhub/jupyterhub`` docker image is only an image for running
-    the Hub service itself. It does not provide the other Jupyter components,
-    such as Notebook installation, which are needed by the single-user servers.
-    To run the single-user servers, which may be on the same system as the Hub or
-    not, Jupyter Notebook version 4 or greater must be installed.
-
-Starting JupyterHub with docker
--------------------------------
-
-The JupyterHub docker image can be started with the following command::
+Run the Docker Image
+--------------------
 
+To pull the latest JupyterHub image and start the `jupyterhub` container, run this command in your terminal.
+::
+   
     docker run -d -p 8000:8000 --name jupyterhub jupyterhub/jupyterhub jupyterhub
 
-This command will create a container named ``jupyterhub`` that you can
-**stop and resume** with ``docker stop/start``.
+This command exposes the Jupyter container on port:8000. Navigate to `http://localhost:8000` in a web browser to access the JupyterHub console.
 
-The Hub service will be listening on all interfaces at port 8000, which makes
-this a good choice for **testing JupyterHub on your desktop or laptop**.
+You can stop and resume the container by running `docker stop` and `docker start` respectively.
+::
 
-If you want to run docker on a computer that has a public IP then you should
-(as in MUST) **secure it with ssl** by adding ssl options to your docker
+    # find the container id
+    docker ps
+
+    # stop the running container
+    docker stop  <container-id>
+
+    # resume the paused container
+    docker start <container-id>
+
+
+If you are running Docker on a computer that has a public IP address, you must **secure it with ssl** by adding ssl options to your docker
 configuration or using a ssl enabled proxy.
 
-`Mounting volumes <https://docs.docker.com/engine/admin/volumes/volumes/>`_
-will allow you to store data outside the docker image (host system) so it will
-be persistent, even when you start a new image.
 
-The command ``docker exec -it jupyterhub bash`` will spawn a root shell in your
-docker container. You can use the root shell to **create system users in the container**.
-These accounts will be used for authentication in JupyterHub's default
+`Mounting volumes <https://docs.docker.com/engine/admin/volumes/volumes/>`_ 
+enables you to persist and store the data generated by the docker container, even when you stop the container. 
+The persistent data can be stored on the host system, outside the container.
+
+
+Create System Users
+-------------------
+
+Spawn a root shell in your docker container by running this command in the terminal.::
+
+    docker exec -it jupyterhub bash
+
+The created accounts will be used for authentication in JupyterHub's default
 configuration.
