To create an Airbyte instance using Docker, you can follow these steps: 1. Install
Docker Engine
and the
Docker Compose plugin
on your workstation. You can follow the instructions [here](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/). 2. After Docker is installed, clone Airbyte from GitHub and switch into the Airbyte directory by running the following commands:
Copy code
bash ## clone Airbyte from GitHub   git clone --depth=1 <https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte.git>      ## switch into Airbyte directory   cd airbyte
3. Start Airbyte by running the following command:
Copy code
bash ## start Airbyte   ./run-ab-platform.sh
4. In your browser, visit <http//localhost8000>. You will be asked for a username and password. By default, that&#x27;s username
airbyte
and password
password
. Once you deploy Airbyte to your servers, be sure to change these in your
.env
file:
Copy code
bash ## Proxy Configuration   ## Set to empty values, e.g. &quot;&quot; to disable basic auth   BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME=your_new_username_here   BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD=your_new_password_here
5. Start moving some data! For more detailed instructions, you can refer to the official [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/docker-compose). Please note that the deployment process might vary slightly depending on your operating system. For instance, if you&#x27;re deploying on Windows, you&#x27;ll need to install the WSL 2 backend and Docker, and you should be able to run containers using Windows PowerShell. You can find more information about deploying on Windows [here](https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/docker-compose#deploy-on-windows).
