Install and Run Docker

What is Docker?

Docker is a platform that allows developers to package applications and their dependencies into a container. Containers are lightweight, standalone, and include everything needed to run an application, ensuring that it works the same across different environments. This makes it easier to develop, deploy, and manage applications consistently.

Why does our Multi-Mining App need to install and run Docker?

• Consistency: Docker ensures that our Multi-Mining App runs consistently across different devices and environments, reducing potential setup issues.

• Isolation: By using Docker, the app runs in its own isolated environment, avoiding conflicts with other software on your computer.

• Ease of Use: Docker simplifies the installation process, bundling all necessary components together, so you can get started with mining quickly.
