Install docker, docker-compose in Ubuntu 24.04 in 5 commands

The official guide takes a bit of reading...

So here's the TL;DR version of it, in 5 commands:

# Install Docker
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
chmod 0644 /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
echo \
  "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME") stable" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y docker-ce docker-compose-plugin

# Add yourself to 'docker' group
sudo usermod --append --groups docker "${USER}"

# Install docker-compose
sudo ln -s /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose /usr/bin/docker-compose

Add yourself to docker group (no need for sudo docker every time)

sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

Profit 😉
