# Working with Amazon ECR in AWS Cloud9 IDE
<a name="ecr"></a>

Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) is an AWS managed container-registry service that's secure and scalable. Several Amazon ECR service functions are accessible from the AWS Toolkit Explorer:
+ Creating a repository.
+ Creating an AWS App Runner service for your repository or tagged image.
+ Accessing image tag and repository URIs or ARNs.
+ Deleting image tags and repositories.

You can also access the full-range of Amazon ECR functions through the AWS Cloud9 console by installing the AWS CLI and other platforms.

For more information about Amazon ECR, see [What is Amazon ECR?](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECR/latest/userguide/what-is-ecr.html) in the Amazon Elastic Container Registry User Guide.
