Manage Docker images on local disk

Docker is very powerful containerization technique, and it is becoming famous in short time. People are adapting and containerizing their applications for deployment.
Soon container become very heavy and consume too much of disk space, If you do not delete old images and layers you may soon run out of disk space. Here i am trying to cover the ways to regain the disk space consumed by docker images. Moving docker filesystem to bigger mount point.Usually docker keeps all temporary files related to image building and layers at /var/lib/docker This path is local to the system usually at root partition "/".

How he writes code is completely depend on his technical and logical skills. 2 different people can write same code in entirely different tactic (May be both logics of the code are right in their own way). Even 2 persons can write bad code as well as good code as per standard.
In real world it is most likely possible that one writes the code and same will be read multiple times by many other developers to fix the bugs, improve the features, understand the code. That is why each language has its own style of coding and guideline to make it more meaningful and understandable.
Most of time the Developers struggle to understand the code written by someone else in team. I have even heard people saying that its difficult to read someone else code rather writing same from scratch.

I would like to highlight few compiled techniques in once place to make writing code better.
