## What is an image
The `image` keyword is the name of the docker image that is present in the
local Docker Engine (list all images with `docker images`) or any image that
can be found at [Docker Hub][hub]. For more information about images and Docker
Hub please read the [Docker Fundamentals][] documentation.
The `image` keyword is the name of the docker image the docker executor
will run to perform the CI tasks.
In short, with `image` we refer to the docker image, which will be used to
create a container on which your job will run.
By default the executor will only pull images from [Docker Hub][hub],
but this can be configured in the `gitlab-runner/config.toml` by setting
the [docker pull policy][] to allow using local images.
For more information about images and Docker Hub please read
the [Docker Fundamentals][] documentation.
