sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg-agent software-properties-common
  • Add the Docker official GPG key:
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
  • Use the following command to set up the stable repository:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
  • Update the apt package index:
sudo apt update
  • Finally, install Docker:
