# Getting Started with Docker Hub
This section provides a quick introduction to the [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com)
and will show you how to create an account.
The [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com) is a centralized resource for working with
Docker and its components. Docker Hub helps you collaborate with colleagues and get the
most out of Docker.To do this, it provides services such as:
* Docker image hosting.
* User authentication.
* Automated image builds and work-flow tools such as build triggers and web
hooks.
* Integration with GitHub and BitBucket.
In order to use Docker Hub, you will first need to register and create an account. Don't
worry, creating an account is simple and free.
## Creating a Docker Hub Account
There are two ways for you to register and create a Docker Hub account:
1. Via the web, or
2. Via the command line.
### Register via the web
Fill in the [sign-up form](https://hub.docker.com/account/signup/) by
choosing your user name and password and specifying email address. You can also sign up
for the Docker Weekly mailing list, which has lots of information about what's going on
in the world of Docker.

### Register via the command line
You can also create a Docker Hub account via the command line with the
`docker login` command.
$ sudo docker login
### Confirm your email
Once you've filled in the form, check your email for a welcome message and confirmation
to activate your account.

Or via the command line with the `docker login` command:
$ sudo docker login
Your Docker Hub account is now active and ready for you to use!
