What is Yacht?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Yacht is a web interface for managing docker containers with an emphasis on templating to provide one-click deployments of dockerized applications. Think of it like a decentralized app store for servers that anyone can make packages for. - https://yacht.sh/docs/

Installing Docker
--------------------------------------------------------------------
   01. Log into the Linux based device
   02. Run the following commands in the terminal
         # install prerequisites
         sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common gnupg-agent -y
         # add docker gpg key
         curl -fsSL download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
         # add docker software repository
         sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
         # install docker
         sudo apt install docker-ce docker-compose containerd.io -y
         # enable and start docker service
         sudo systemctl enable docker && sudo systemctl start docker
