We start with the basics:
* What serverless really means
* How GCP Cloud Run works
* Why companies are increasingly using Cloud Run in production
* Introduction to Google Container Registry (GCR)

Then, we move to the practical workflow:
* Creating a NestJS app and running it locally
* Writing a Dockerfile and building a Docker image
* Authenticating Docker with GCR
* Pushing the Docker image to GCR
* Deploying the container to Cloud Run
* Accessing the live app through the Cloud Run URL

Finally, we explore the Cloud Run dashboard, demonstrating how to monitor your serverless application, view logs, and scale effortlessly.

By the end of this video, you will be able to:
Dockerize any Node/NestJS app
Push images to GCR
Deploy serverless applications on Cloud Run like a real DevOps engineer
