Select "Community Edition" or "Docker CE"
Docker comes with two flavors of installations. The "paid" version is Docker Enterprise Edition (Docker EE), and the "free" version is Docker Community Edition (Docker CE). We will be using only free features provided by the Docker Community Edition for this course.
- Select the filters for your operating system or platform
On this page you will find the installation for your operating systems. For example, if you are using a Mac, select "MacOS", to find the installation for the Mac platform.
If you don't want to install Docker, an alternative is to use Play-With-Docker. Play-With-Docker is a website where you can run terminals directly from your browser that have Docker installed. All of the labs for this course can be run on Play-With-Docker, though we recommend installing docker locally on your host, so that you can continue your docker journey when this course has completed. To use Play-With-Docker, navigate to http://play-with-docker.com in your browser.
By installing Docker, or alternatively, familiarizing yourself with http://play-with-docker.com, you are ready to complete the remaining labs in this course.
