This document discusses deploying a Node.js application using Docker. It provides steps for setting up a development environment on a local machine, provisioning a Ubuntu server using Vagrant, installing Docker on the server, building a Docker image from the application code, and automatically rebuilding and deploying the Docker container on code pushes to a git repository hosted on the server. The automated deployment is achieved through a post-receive git hook that checks out the new code, builds a new Docker image tagged with the git commit hash, stops and removes any existing containers, and runs the new container exposing port 80.
