Pick the right Docker Desktop installer for Apple Silicon or Intel macOS
Linux users must log out and back in after adding themselves to the docker group.
This repository is a short Docker installation guide written in Portuguese. It points readers to the official Docker documentation and then walks through the install steps for three operating systems: Linux, Windows, and macOS. There is no application code at the center of this project. The repo reads more like a study guide or workshop handout. For Linux users on Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and similar distributions, the guide recommends the official convenience script from Docker. It shows how to download and run that script, how to add the current user to the docker group so that commands do not need sudo every time, and how to apply the new group membership by logging out and back in. It also lists the basic checks after install, such as running docker version, docker info, and docker run hello-world. The guide notes that docker version should show both a Client and a Server section. If only the Client appears, the daemon is not running, and the guide gives the systemctl commands to start it and to set it to launch at boot. For Windows, the guide is brief. It links to the official Docker Desktop install page and reminds the reader that WSL2 must be active, which can be checked in PowerShell with wsl --status. For macOS, it also links to the official install page and notes that the user must pick the correct installer for either Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3) chips or Intel chips. The README does not describe any custom tooling, scripts, or projects beyond these install notes. The repository language is listed as Python, but the README itself does not mention Python code or examples. Readers who want a longer tutorial should follow the official Docker links included in the document.
