As a part of our <a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/blog\/2014\/10\/15\/new-windows-server-containers-and-azure-support-for-docker\/\">partnership<\/a>, Microsoft has worked with the Docker community to port the Docker client to Windows, making it easy to manage Docker hosts and containers for those using Windows as their development machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Docker Client for Windows can be used to manage Docker hosts running Linux containers today, and managing Windows Server Containers and Hyper-V Containers will be supported in the future to provide the same standard Docker Client and interface on multiple development environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Microsoft and Docker have collaborated to port the Docker Client to the Windows environment in Docker\u2019s open source project, which you can <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/docker\/docker\/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;q=author%3Aahmetalpbalkan+created%3A%3E%3D2014-11-01+is%3Apr+sort%3Acreated-asc\">see on GitHub<\/a>. We will continue to improve the overall experience for Azure users by developing Docker Engine for Windows Server Containers and Hyper-V Containers as part of the Docker open source project and participate in the greater Docker community actively. Windows Server Container Images will also be available in the Docker Hub alongside the 45,000 and growing Docker images for Linux already available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-install\">How to Install<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can download official distribution of Docker Client for Windows by either installing it from the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/chocolatey.org\/packages\/docker\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Chocolatey<\/a> package manager or installing Boot2Docker, which provides a Docker-ready development environment inside a local virtual machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please read the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.docker.com\/installation\/windows\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Windows Installation<\/a> instructions in the Docker User Guide to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Capture-1.webp\" alt=\"graphical user interface, text, application\" class=\"wp-image-9228 webp-format\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Capture-1.webp\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"further-reading\">Further Reading<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please refer to the following documentation on setting up virtual machines as Docker hosts on Azure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list task-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/documentation\/articles\/virtual-machines-docker-vm-extension\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Creating Docker hosts on Azure with VM Extension<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/blog\/2015\/01\/08\/introducing-docker-in-microsoft-azure-marketplace\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Creating Docker hosts from Microsoft Azure Marketplace<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/documentation\/articles\/virtual-machines-docker-machine\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Using Docker Machine to create Docker hosts on Azure<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"acknowledgements\">Acknowledgements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people from both Docker and the greater community have worked on developing Docker so far.
