If you're a Mac or Windows user, the best way to install Compose and keep it up-to-date is **[Docker for Mac and Windows](https://www.docker.com/products/docker)**. Docker for Mac and Windows will automatically install the latest version of Docker Engine for you. Alternatively, you can use the usual commands to install or upgrade Compose: ``` curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/{{version}}/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose ``` See the [install docs](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) for more install options and instructions. ## Compose file format compatibility matrix | Compose file format | Docker Engine | | --- | --- | {% for engine, formats in compat_matrix.items() -%} | {% for format in formats %}{{format}}{% if not loop.last %}, {% endif %}{% endfor %} | {{engine}}+ | {% endfor -%} ## Changes {{changelog}} Thanks to {% for name in contributors %}@{{name}}{% if not loop.last %}, {% endif %}{% endfor %} for contributing to this release! ## Integrity check Binary name | SHA-256 sum | --- | --- | {% for filename, sha in integrity.items() -%} | `{{filename}}` | `{{sha[1]}}` | {% endfor -%}
