Docker Installation

Installing Docker

Linux

Follow the official Docker Engine installation guide for Linux.

After installation, ensure Docker is managed by a non-root user:

sudo groupadd docker
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
newgrp docker

macOS

Download and install Docker Desktop for Mac.

Windows

Download and install Docker Desktop for Windows.

Verifying your installation

docker version

docker compose version

Both commands should return version information without errors.

File Sharing (macOS / Windows)

The workshop uses Docker Volume Mounting. On macOS and Windows, ensure that File/Drive Sharing is enabled in Docker Desktop settings for the directory where you unpacked the workshop.

Go to Settings | Resources | File Sharing and add the workshop directory.
