Install the correct docker version
Note that the string "bionic" is the output of the command "lsb_release -cs". If you have another version of Ubuntu than 18.04, you can try to replace "bionic" with the output of this command, but it might not be supported. On a derivative Linux, this does not work, and you need to find out the correct Ubuntu lsb release by consulting their documentation. Do the same for similar occurences in scripts further below.
 
You also need a more recent version of a tool called "docker-compose", more on this later.
Install the latest version like this:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.24.0/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
</syntaxhighlight>
Post install, you have to allow docker access for your account. Note that this comes which a bunch of privileges which are essentially equivalent to admin rights on your machine. Thus, some guides recommend to set up a special user account for this. Anyway, assign the respective rights by adding your user to the docker group:
After that, it is at least necessary to log out and back in to update the privileges, but a reboot also can not hurt.
