Before we start, you need to have the following things ready:

sudo apt-get install curl
curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.27.4/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

After the installation is complete, you can verify the installation by running the following command:

docker-compose --version

Step 3: Install Tiledesk

Now that you have installed Docker and Docker Compose, you can proceed to install Tiledesk.

wget https://tiledesk.com/downloads/docker-compose.yml
