Installing Docker
To use the Docker images for our SDKs you'll need to have Docker installed.
As Carly Simon, "nobody does it better"... than the Docker people themselves when it comes to walking you through set up. Their guide walks your through the steps quickly and shows you how to perform a "hello-world" Docker test.
This will download an image from Docker hub and then create a container from that image. This container will run the executable which outputs the message to your terminal, indicating that Docker was properly installed. If this works you are ready to try out the Intercom images.
Problems installing Docker?
1/ If you do run into any problems then we would suggest trying the troubleshooting section for your specific OS. For example, here is the logs and troubleshooting section for Mac. These are a great place to see machine-specific issues.
2/ After that, check this link from where you can navigate to a more detailed set of install steps for your distribution. You can try again using these steps to see if you missed anything the first time around
3/ Failing that, Google is your friend!
