Setup Development environment on M1 MAC

Development

I got stock on step 2:
Once your fork is created, copy the URL of your fork and paste it below, then click “Open”:

The error I got state that Docker is not running

[91 ms] Dev Containers 0.292.0 in VS Code 1.78.2 (b3e4e68a0bc097f0ae7907b217c1119af9e03435).
[91 ms] Start: Run: docker version --format {{.Server.APIVersion}}
[195 ms] 
[195 ms] Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

Many thanks in advance,

Rien

Hi,
Have you checked if Docker daemon it’s in fact running in the background?
You can simply run “docker ps” on your terminal to check if docker is running or not.
