Details

Join us for our local edition of the Docker Global Mentor Week!

Docker Global Mentor Week is your opportunity to #learndocker. Right now, Docker is working on self paced online labs that will be available through LearnDot. One lab will be for beginners and one lab will be for intermediate users. Docker mentors will be on hand at this event to help you as you work through the self paced materials.

Are you an advanced user? We strongly encourage Docker users of all skill levels to attend! We need a network of mentors who understand the Docker platform to answer any questions that newcomers may have. Click here (https://community.docker.com/registrations/groups/6947) to sign up as a mentor.

## Preparation

### Docker Hub account

You will need a Docker Hub account to access the course materials. Make sure you have an account at: https://hub.docker.com (https://hub.docker.com/)

### Install docker

Set-up Docker on your laptop (you will need to bring your own computer)

Linux users: we need you to install Docker engine (https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/) and Docker compose (https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/). Make sure you have Docker compose version 1.6 or higher by running docker-compose version from the command prompt.
Mac users: install Docker for Mac (https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/) or if you have an older Mac, Docker Toolbox (https://docker.github.io/toolbox/).
Windows users: if you have Windows 10 pro install Docker for Windows (https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/), otherwise install Docker Toolbox (https://docker.github.io/toolbox/). If you want to try the new Windows containers, go through the setup steps in the Windows Container lab (https://github.com/docker/labs/blob/master/windows/windows-containers/Setup.md). It is essential to run this command in Powershell before coming to the event:
docker pull microsoft/windowsservercore:latest
