Docker CE for Mac is an easy-to-install desktop app for building, debugging, and testing Dockerized apps on a Mac. Docker for Mac is a complete development environment deeply integrated with the Mac OS Hypervisor framework, networking, and filesystem. Docker for Mac is the fastest and most reliable way to run Docker on a Mac.

Install Docker CE on macOS

When the installation completes and Docker starts, the whale in the top status bar shows that Docker is running, and accessible from a terminal.

Run it

Open a command-line terminal (I’m using Iterm-2), we’ll try some Docker command

Run docker version to check that you have the latest release installed.

Run docker run hello-world to verify that Docker is pulling images and running as expected.
