  Note
  While the following instructions may work, Docker doesn't test or verify
  installation on distribution derivatives.
  If you use Debian derivatives such as "BunsenLabs Linux", "Kali Linux" or
  "LMDE" (Debian-based Mint) should follow the installation instructions for
  Debian
  , substitute the version of your distribution for the
  corresponding Debian release. Refer to the documentation of your distribution to find
  which Debian release corresponds with your derivative version.
  Likewise, if you use Ubuntu derivatives such as "Kubuntu", "Lubuntu" or "Xubuntu"
  you should follow the installation instructions for
  Ubuntu
  substituting the version of your distribution for the corresponding Ubuntu release.
  Refer to the documentation of your distribution to find which Ubuntu release
  corresponds with your derivative version.
  Some Linux distributions provide a package of Docker Engine through their
  package repositories. These packages are built and maintained by the Linux
  distribution's package maintainers and may have differences in configuration
  or are built from modified source code. Docker isn't involved in releasing these
  packages and you should report any bugs or issues involving these packages to
  your Linux distribution's issue tracker.
  Docker provides
  binaries
  for manual installation of Docker Engine.
  These binaries are statically linked and you can use them on any Linux distribution.
  Release channels
  Docker Engine has two types of update channels,
  stable
  test
  stable
  channel gives you the latest versions released for general availability.
  test
  channel gives you pre-release versions that are ready for testing before
  general availability.
  Use the test channel with caution. Pre-release versions include experimental and
  early-access features that are subject to breaking changes.
  Support
  Docker Engine is an open source project, supported by the Moby project maintainers
  and community members. Docker doesn't provide support for Docker Engine.
  Docker provides support for Docker products, including Docker Desktop, which uses
  Docker Engine as one of its components.
  For information about the open source project, refer to the
  Moby project website
