The docker ps command shows you all containers that are currently running.

$ docker ps -a
list of all containers that we ran

$ docker rm 305297d7a235 ff0a5c3750b9
clean up containers once I'm done with them

$ docker rm $(docker ps -a -q -f status=exited)
This command deletes all containers that have a status of exited

$ docker container prune
This will remove all stopped containers
