I'm new to this whole Docker thing, and I'm trying to figure out how to Dockerize my current Django project. I've noticed that most tutorials either start a new project from scratch or clone an existing one, but I want to apply Docker to my already existing project. I'm on macOS, using VSCode, and my Docker version is 4.40. Can anyone suggest a straightforward guide or share some steps on how to Dockerize my project? Any pointers would really help!

You might want to start by checking out a basic Django Docker setup. Although the term "cockerize" is a bit off, you can adapt the steps used for new projects to your existing one. This gives you a solid learning experience too! Just try to ensure the basics are covered: creating a suitable Dockerfile and configuring it appropriately with your existing code.
Right? It’s all about taking those foundational steps and customizing them for your project. You’ve got this!
