+\textbf{Learn step-by-step how to install Docker on Debian 12 and unlock the power of containerization. Get started
+with our comprehensive guide.}
+
+Docker has revolutionized software development and deployment, providing a lightweight and efficient containerization
+solution.
+
+In this article, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of installing Docker on Debian 12 (Bookworm),
+empowering you to take advantage of its powerful features.
+
+Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced user, our easy-to-follow instructions will ensure a smooth installation. So
+let’s dive in!
+
+\subsection{Installing Docker on Debian 12}
+There are several ways you can install Docker on your Debian 12 system. It is available in the official Debian
+repositories, where it can be easily installed with a single APT command. However, one disadvantage to this approach is
+that the version available is not always the most recent.
+
+For this reason, I will show you how to install Docker on Debian 12 from the official Docker repository. This approach
+guarantees you always get the latest up-to-date version and will automatically receive all future software updates as
+they become available. So, let’s get started.
+
+\subsubsection{Step 1: Install Prerequisites}
+First, run the two commands below to update the package index and install the prerequisite necessary to add and use a
+new HTTPS repository.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# apt update
+# apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\subsubsection{Step 2: Add Docker’s GPG Repo Key}
+Next, import the Docker GPG repository key to your Debian system. This security feature ensures that the software
+you’re installing is authentic.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker.gpg
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Notice that the command produces no output.
+
+
+\subsubsection{Step 3: Add the Docker Repo to Debian 12}
+After importing the GPG keys, we’ll add the official Docker repository to our Debian 12 system. This implies that the
+update package will be made available with the rest of your system’s regular updates if a new version is released.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker.gpg] \
+https://download.docker.com/linux/debian bookworm stable" | \
+ tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
+\end{verbatim}
+
+As with the previous command, its execution produces no output.
+
+Next, refresh the package list.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# apt update
+\end{verbatim}
+
+As you can see, our new Docker repository is now available and ready to be used.
+
+\subsubsection{Step 4: Install Docker on Debian 12 (Bookworm)}
+To install the latest up-to-date Docker release on Debian, run the below command.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin
+\end{verbatim}
+
+This installs the following Docker components:
+
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item docker-ce: The Docker engine itself.\\
+ \item docker-ce-cli: A command line tool that lets you talk to the Docker daemon.
+ \item containerd.io: A container runtime that manages the container’s lifecycle.
+ \item docker-buildx-plugin: A CLI plugin that extends the Docker build with many new features.
+\end{itemize}
+
+That’s all! Docker should now be installed; the service started and enabled to start automatically on boot.
+
+In addition, you can check the Docker service status using the following:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# systemctl is-active docker
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\subsubsection{Step 5: Verify the Docker Installation}
+Now let’s check if everything with our new Docker installation works properly. For this purpose, we will run a simple application called \emph{"hello-world"}.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# docker run hello-world
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Congratulations! As we can see, everything works as expected!
+
+\subsection{Enabling Non-root Users to Run Docker Commands}
+So far, we have successfully installed Docker on your Debian 12 system.
+
+However, only root and users with sudo privileges can execute Docker commands by default. In other words, if you
+attempt to run the \verb|docker| command without prefixing it with \verb|sudo|, you’ll get an error message like this:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+$ docker ps
+permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at
+unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Get "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/containers/json":
+dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied
+\end{verbatim}
+
+So, to run Docker commands as a non-root user, you must add your user to the “docker” group. To do that, type in the
+following:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+# usermod -aG docker ${USER}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+In the above command, \verb|${USER}| is an environment variable that holds your username. To apply for the new group
+membership, reboot your Debian system.
+
+You can then execute Docker commands without prefixing them with \verb|sudo|.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+$ docker ps
+CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\subsection{Conclusion}
+hroughout this article, we have explored the step-by-step process of installing Docker on Debian 12 (Bookworm).
+
+It is worth noting that Docker is continuously evolving, with new features, improvements, and updates being introduced
+regularly. As such, it is recommended to stay up to date with the latest releases and security patches to ensure a
+smooth and secure Docker experience.

+to expand your skills with Docker and learn how to run and manage multi-container applications using Docker Compose.
+Happy dockering!
