How to set up docker on windows

0. If you have 32-bit windows installed, or Windows Vista or lower, you can't run docker. This is very uncommon so if you have 32-bit windows and need to get set up you can message me on the codeforPDX slack @Alex Grant or email me at alex.h.w.grant@gmail.com

1. First, if you don't have windows 10 professional or enterprise, but do have 64-bit windows, download docker toolbox

   • If you do have professional or enterprise, download docker for windows

2. Make sure you have git bash installed.

3. The version of docker-compose that comes with docker toolbox is incompatible with the version of our docker-compose.yml

   3.1 to upgrade it, go to the docker-compose github and download the latest stable release. (At time of writing it is 1.23.2)

   3.2 download the docker-compose-Windows-x86_64.exe

   3.3 rename the downloaded file to docker-compose.exe

   3.4 copy the file into your Docker Toolbox installation folder. Usually it's C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox

4. Go back to the main README.MD and follow the rest of the steps.

5. Go to 192.168.99.100:5000 to see the site running!
