Detailed Instructions and Video for MX Linux and Docker

The following video is the most detailed exploration I have.
Docker, Lamp Ngrok and mstream

Here are some "tl:dr" notes that I believe summarize the process.

From a clean install of MX Linux, open a terminal and do:

sudo apt install docker docker.io docker-compose

Next, you need to create a group, or ensure a docker group already exists, either way just do the following command:

sudo groupadd docker

Add yourself to the group (you can type the following AS IS, since $USER means "you")

sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

NEXT, either shutdown your machine or VM and start it again, or in the same terminal type

newgrp docker

(this will make those last changes "stick," for now, but to ensure they stick forever, restart your machine)

Next, you'll need one more safety type program:

sudo apt install apparmor

This should do it.

Run

docker run hello-world

and it should work.
