Home version

To use docker on Windows Home, you need to use the Docker Toolbox, which use VirtualBox to run docker on your machine.

⚠️ Important notes for Windows Home version

The Docker Toolbox and the VirtualBox env will change two important things when you use docker :

The host to access the containers isn't localhost, but the IP 192.168.99.100 (by default)
Due to the nature of VirtualBox, the volumes binding between your local system and the containers are kinda limited. Please ensure that your working folder is inside the C:/Users path.

Testing your installation

Simply run the following command (without sudo): docker run hello-world. The following response should appear after some time:

Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
    (amd64)
 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
    executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
    to your terminal.

To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
 $ docker run -it ubuntu bash
