Introduction

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing Docker Engine on Ubuntu by configuring Docker's official apt repository, installing the necessary packages, and starting the Docker service.

Steps1. Set up the Docker's apt repository Add Docker's official GPG key 
    sudo apt-get update
  
    sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl
  
    sudo install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings
  
    sudo curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
  
    sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
Add the repository to apt sources
    echo \
  "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
  $(. /etc/os-release && echo "${UBUNTU_CODENAME:-$VERSION_CODENAME}") stable" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
  
    sudo apt-get update
2. Install the Docker packages (latest)
    sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin
3. Start the Docker daemon (service)
    sudo service docker start
  
       * Starting Docker: docker                                                      [ OK ]
