Nope. Docker doesn't do that. That's something else.

But it does in a lot of cases. At work, we use Docker images to bundle our dependencies for each microservice, and at home, I use Docker images for the same reason on my self-hosted repos. It's fantastic for running servers in a sandbox so you don't have to worry about what dependencies the host has.

But perhaps OP is talking about flatpaks instead.
