Each command has a reference page along with samples. If you are 21 unfamiliar with the command line, you should start by reading about how to 22 [Use the Docker command line](cli.md). 23 24 You start the Docker daemon with the command line. How you start the daemon 25 affects your Docker containers. For that reason you should also make sure to 26 read the [`dockerd`](dockerd.md) reference page. 27 28 For a list of Docker commands see [Command line reference guide](index.md).
