Answer
A Dockerfile defines how to build a Docker image.
A Dockerfile is a script that contains a series of instructions on how to construct a Docker image. It specifies the base image, software dependencies, and configurations needed to run an application. For example, a Dockerfile for a Java service might start with `FROM openjdk:11` and include instructions to copy and run the compiled Java application.
