# Docker integration

There are two primary ways to incorporate [Docker](https://www.docker.com) in your CI/CD workflow.

- **[Run your CI/CD jobs](using_docker_images.md) in Docker containers.**

  You can create CI/CD jobs to do things like test, build, or publish
  an application. These jobs can run in Docker containers.

  For example, you can tell GitLab CI/CD to use a Node image that's hosted on Docker Hub
  or in the GitLab Container Registry. Your job then runs in a container that's based on the image.
  The container has all the Node dependencies you need to build your app.

- **Use [Docker](using_docker_build.md) or [kaniko](using_kaniko.md) to build Docker images.**

  You can create CI/CD jobs to build Docker images and publish
  them to a container registry.
