You can share and store images in Docker Hub (http://hub.docker.com{:target="blank" rel="noopener" class=""}). Docker hub has over 100,000 images created by developers that you can run locally. You can search for Docker Hub images and run them directly from Docker Desktop.
Step 1: Search for the image
You can search for Docker Hub images on Docker Desktop. Use the search bar, or use the shortcut ⌘K on Mac or Ctrl + K on Windows. In the search bar, specify welcome-to-docker to find the docker/welcome-to-docker image used in this guide.

You can read the description for the image on Docker Hub by selecting View on Hub or by searching for the image directly on https://hub.docker.com{:target="blank" rel="noopener" class=""}.
Step 3: Explore the container
That's it! The container is ready to use. Go to the Containers tab in Docker Desktop to view the container.
