Installing Docker on an Ubuntu workstation

The requirement for installing Docker CE on Ubuntu is that you have to be running a 64-bit recent LTS release, such as Bionic, Xenial, or Trusty. You can install an edge version of Docker CE onto the Artful version of Ubuntu.

  • Downloading and manually installing the DEB packages
  • Running convenience scripts
