Creating ECR repositories using the AWS Console

Creating an ECR repository can be performed using the AWS Console by performing the following steps:

1. From the main AWS console, select Services | Elastic Container Service within the Compute section, select Repositories from the left menu, and then click on the Get Started button.
2. You will be prompted to configure a name for your repository. A standard convention is to name your repositories in the <organization>/<application> format, which will result in a fully-qualified repository URI of <registry>/<organization>/<application>. In the following example, I am calling the repository docker-in-aws/todobackend, but you can name your image whatever you like. Once complete, click on Next step to continue:

3. Your ECR repository will now be created and instructions on how to log in to ECR and publish your Docker image will be provided.
