Docker Toolbox is an installer for quick setup and launch of a Docker environment on older Mac and Windows systems that do not meet the requirements of the new [Docker for Mac](/docker-for-mac/index.md) and [Docker for Windows](/docker-for-windows/index.md) apps.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What's in the box
|
|
|
|
Toolbox includes these Docker tools:
|
|
|
|
* Docker Machine for running `docker-machine` commands
|
|
|
|
* Docker Engine for running the `docker` commands
|
|
|
|
* Docker Compose for running the `docker-compose` commands
|
|
|
|
* Kitematic, the Docker GUI
|
|
|
|
* a shell preconfigured for a Docker command-line environment
|
|
|
|
* Oracle VirtualBox
|
|
|
|
You can find various versions of the tools on [Toolbox Releases](https://github.com/docker/toolbox/releases) or run them with the `--version` flag in the terminal, for example, `docker-compose --version`.
