Docker has revolutionized how we develop and deploy applications. If you're running Debian 12 "Bookworm", this comprehensive guide will walk you through installing the latest Docker Engine along with the integrated Docker Compose plugin.
What you'll learn:
- Two installation methods: automated (quick) and manual (detailed control)
- Setting up Docker Compose as a plugin (the modern way)
- Practical testing with real containers
- Security best practices and optimization tips
- Troubleshooting common issues
Important note: Docker Compose is now a built-in plugin, not a separate tool. We use docker compose (with a space) instead of the old docker-compose command.
Whether you're a system administrator, developer, or DevOps engineer, this guide provides everything you need to get Docker up and running on Debian 12.
