Go to choose your hardware platform, and download the .tgz file relating to the version of Docker Engine you want to install.\n\nExtract the archive using the tar utility. The dockerd and docker binaries are extracted.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n    $ tar xzvf /path/to/<FILE>.tar.gz\n```\n\nOptional: Move the binaries to a directory on your executable path, such as /usr/bin/. If you skip this step, you must provide the path to the executable when you invoke docker or dockerd commands.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n    $ sudo cp docker/* /usr/bin/\n```\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n    $ sudo dockerd &\n```\n\nVerify that Docker is installed correctly by running the hello-world image.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n    $ sudo docker run hello-world\n```\n\nYou have now successfully installed and started Docker Engine.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
