I've made this video, because a lot of people complained that nowadays Docker and especially Docker Compose installation can be problematic. Luckily, I'm listening, so here we go! The video contains instructions for Docker that should help you install it whether you're on Ubuntu (via apt) or Raspbian/Raspberry Pi OS (via official Docker install script).

Also, Docker compose is installed in its most basic form - via Python 3's PIP and it should work on both OSes.

Commands used in the video:

docker.io package installation (Ubuntu only!):
sudo apt install docker.io

Docker official installation:
- curl -sSL get.docker.com | sh

Adding the user to the docker group:
- sudo usermod -aG docker ubuntu

Docker compose installation:
- sudo apt-get install -y libffi-dev libssl-dev
- sudo apt-get install -y python3 python3-pip
- sudo apt-get remove python-configparser
- sudo pip3 -v install docker-compose
