## Docker detached mode
|
|
|
|
Detached mode, shown by the option `--detach` or `-d`, means that a Docker container runs in the background of your terminal. It does not receive input or display output.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker run -d IMAGE
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you run containers in the background, you can find out their details using `docker ps` and then reattach your terminal to its input and output.
