Docker Desktop terms

Commercial use of Docker Desktop in larger enterprises (more than 250 employees OR more than $10 million USD in annual revenue) requires a paid subscription.

This page contains information on how to install, launch and upgrade Docker Desktop on an Arch-based distribution.

Prerequisites

To install Docker Desktop successfully, you must meet the general system requirements.

Install Docker Desktop

  1. Install the Docker client binary on Linux. Static binaries for the Docker client are available for Linux as docker. You can use:

    $ wget https://download.docker.com/linux/static/stable/x86_64/docker-{{% param "docker_ce_version" %}}.tgz -qO- | tar xvfz - docker/docker --strip-components=1
$ sudo cp -rp ./docker /usr/local/bin/ && rm -r ./docker

  2. Download the latest Arch package from the Release notes.

  3. Install the package:

    $ sudo pacman -U ./docker-desktop-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

    By default, Docker Desktop is installed at /opt/docker-desktop.

Launch Docker Desktop
