Docker is a popular open-source platform that allows developers to easily create, deploy, and run applications in containers. In this article, we will show you how to install Docker on a Linux machine using either apt or yum package managers. Here are the steps:
For apt-based distributions (e.g. Debian, Ubuntu):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install docker.io
For yum-based distributions (e.g. CentOS, Fedora):
sudo yum update
sudo yum install docker-ce
After the installation is complete, you can start Docker using the following command:
sudo systemctl start docker
You can also check the status of Docker to make sure it's running correctly:
sudo systemctl status docker
And that's it! You've successfully installed Docker on your Linux machine. You can now start using Docker to manage your applications and services.
