Installation of Docker

Lets Install Docker & Get Going!!


We can install on all the type of Operating System, lets start. 
Choose from the option depending on the Operating system you have


1. Installing on Windows 10 (Pro or Enterprise):
This is the best experience on Windows, but due to OS feature requirements, it only works on the Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows 10 (with latest update rollups). You need to install "Docker for Windows" from the Docker Store.
With this Edition I recommend using PowerShell for the best CLI experience.






2.Installing on Windows 7, 8, or 10 Home Edition:
Unfortunately, Microsoft's OS features for Docker and Hyper-V don't work in these older versions, and "Windows 10 Home" edition doesn't have Hyper-V, so you'll need to install the Docker Toolbox, which is a slightly different approach to using Docker with a VirtualBox VM. This means Docker will be running in a Virtual Machine that sits behind the IP of your OS, and uses NAT to access the internet.

3. Installing on Mac
You'll want to install Docker for Mac, which is great. If you're on an older Mac with less than OSX Yosemite 10.10.3, you'll need to install the Docker Toolbox instead.









4. Installing on Linux
Do *not* use your built in default packages like apt/yum install docker.io  because those packages are old and not the Official Docker-Built packages. 

I prefer to use the Docker's automated script to add their repository and install all dependencies: curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh  but you can also install in a more manual method by following specific instructions on the Docker Store for your distribution, like this one for Ubuntu.

Introduction to Docker

Docker - What is Docker? Lets understand docker and why is it so important in today's  world. Docker is an open platform for developing, shipping, and running applications. Docker enables you to separate your applications from your infrastructure so you can deliver software quickly. With Docker, you can manage your infrastructure in the same ways you manage your applications. By taking advantage of Docker’s methodologies for shipping, testing, and deploying code quickly, you can significantly reduce the delay between writing code and running it in production. The Docker platform Docker provides the ability to package and run an application in a loosely isolated environment called a container. The isolation and security allow you to run many containers simultaneously on a given host. Containers are lightweight because they don’t need the extra load of a hyper-visor, but run directly within the host machine’s kernel. This means you can run more containers on a given hardw...
