Task: remove everything related to Docker and cleanup
Solution:
sudo docker system prune
If you want to remove any stopped containers and all unused images, not just dangling images use it with “-a” option:
sudo docker system prune -a
Why: after playing with Docker and Docker Compose at some point you may have tons of unused images and containers which occupy disk space. I do not like keeping unnecessary files on my system 🙂
