Rust language-specific guide — Stop, start, and name containers
You can start, stop, and restart Docker containers. When you stop a container, it's not removed, but the status is changed to stopped and the process inside the container is stopped.

You can start, stop, and restart Docker containers. When you stop a container, it's not removed, but the status is changed to stopped and the process inside the container is stopped.

```
You should now see several containers listed. These are containers that you started and stopped but you haven't removed.

Now list all the containers again using the docker ps --all command. …
