System requirements:

• Intel's hardware support for virtualization
• Minimum RAM requirements - 4GB
• VirtualBox of version 4.3.30 or above 

Installation steps:

• Double click on this dmg file and drag and drop it into the application folder
• You'll see the docker.app installed
• Double click on docker.app to authorize the installation with the system password and your docker is up and running

Verification:

Execute the following commands to check if your docker is running fine and check the versions

docker --version
docker-compose --version
docker-machine --version
