Install and run Docker for Mac

Download DockerCE for MAC

What the install includes: The installation provides Docker Engine, Docker CLI client, Docker Compose, Docker Machine, and Kitematic.

• Double-click Docker.dmg to open the installer, then drag the whale to the Applications folder.

• Double-click Docker.app in the Applications folder to start Docker. You are prompted to authorize Docker.app with your system password after you launch it. Privileged access is needed to install networking components and links to the Docker apps.

The whale in the top status bar indicates that Docker is running, and accessible from a terminal.

If you just installed the app, you also get a success message with suggested next steps and a link to this documentation. Click the whale in the status bar to dismiss this popup.

• Select About Docker to verify that you have the latest version.
