This tutorial will guide you on how to install Docker on Linux Mint.
Before installing Docker on Linux Mint, make sure that you have updated the Ubuntu package list and installed the required packages:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common
You can install Docker Community Edition (CE) or Enterprise Edition (EE) on Linux Mint by adding the Docker's official GPG key and repository.
Add Docker's official GPG key to your system using the following command:
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
Add the Docker repository to your system by running the following command:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
Update the package database to include the Docker repository.
sudo apt-get update
Now, install Docker by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install docker-ce
Verify that Docker is installed correctly by running the hello-world container:
sudo docker run hello-world
This should output a message that confirms the successful installation of Docker.
You have successfully installed Docker on Linux Mint. You can now start using Docker to deploy and manage containerized applications on your system.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
