Docker Installation for macOS

This link will redirect you to Docker Desktop for Mac page, where it will ask you to login to download.

After clicking on Please Login to Download, it will redirect to Docker login screen. If you already have login detail, you can login and proceed. Here, as I don’t have any login for Docker, So I am clicking on Create Account button.

After creating your account in Docker, it will show Get Docker button now on same page.

After clicking on Get Docker, it will start downloading docker installation file docker.dmg. Once this file is downloaded, click on this setup file. It will open installation screen.

Once you click on Docker app icon, it will launch Docker Desktop.

You are prompted to authorize Docker.app with your system password after you launch it. Privileged access is needed to install networking components and links to the Docker apps.
