Week 0 - Jupyter notebook with Keras and Tensorflow

Starting with my deep-learning learning plan, I wanted to have a good development environment. This meant having a Docker image that can work on any device I am using with no extra setup needed. My choice was to use Keras with Tensorflow core for an easy start with not so many unwanted details at this step. I also chose to use Jupyter notebook to have a nice interface to trace/explain my code along with graphs and output numbers.

The following is my finalized Dockerfile with the latest versions which worked exactly how I wanted it.

# To build the container
# docker build -t jupyter-keras .
# To run the container:
# docker run -it -v /$(pwd)/:/home/jovyan/work -p 8888:8888 jupyter-keras:latest start-notebook.sh --NotebookApp.token=''

# To access the notbook from the browser:
# http://localhost:8888/tree

# To login in to the server:
# docker exec -it  /bin/bash

# To check Keras version:
# python -c 'import keras; print(keras.__version__)'
