    • Use the docker images command to list all the images on your local machine and find the ID or name of the image that you want to push to Docker Hub.

      • Use the docker login command to authenticate with Docker Hub. Enter your Docker Hub account username and password when prompted.
  1. Use the docker tag command to tag your local image with the name of your Docker Hub repository. The syntax for the docker tag command is:

    docker tag Repository:TAG Accountname/reponame_on_dockerhub

  2. Verify that the image has been successfully tagged using the docker images command.

  3. Use the docker push command to push your Docker image to Docker Hub. The syntax for the docker push command is:

    Docker push Account_name/repo_name_from_dockerhub

    1. Wait for the image to be uploaded to Docker Hub. The time it takes to upload depends on the size of the image and your internet connection speed.
