+# Introduction
+
+Installing AzerothCore using Docker is a simplified procedure that has several benefits:
+
+- It's very easy! Docker will do all the dirty work for you.
+- It can be done in all operating systems where Docker is available (including **Windows**, **GNU/Linux**, **macOS**)
+- You don't need to install many dependencies (forget about _visual studio_, _cmake_, _mysql_, etc.. they are **NOT** required)
+- Forget about platform-specific bugs. When using Docker, AzerothCore will always run in **Linux-mode**. 
+- There are many other [benefits when using Docker](https://www.google.com/search?q=docker+benefits)

+
+
+#### Memory usage
+
+The total amount of RAM when running all AzerothCore docker containers is **less than 2 GB** with no players online.
+
+This is an example of a fresh, empty AzerothCore server running with Docker on macOS:

+
+When used on GNU/Linux system, the amount of memory used by Docker is even less.
+
+#### Docker containers vs Virtual machines
+
+Usind Docker will have the same benefits as using virtual machines, but with much less overhead:

+
+# Setup
+
+## Software requirements
+
+The only requirements are [git](https://git-scm.com/download/) and Docker.
+
+#### New Operating Systems [recommended]:
+- For GNU/Linux install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/ubuntu) and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
+- For macOS 10.12+ Sierra and newer version install [Docker Desktop for Mac](https://hub.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-mac)
+- For Windows 10 install [Docker Desktop for Windows](https://hub.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-windows)
+
+#### Old Operating Systems [not tested]:
+- For macOS older than 10.11 El Capitan and older install [Docker Toolbox for Mac](https://docs.docker.com/toolbox/toolbox_install_mac/)
+- For Windows 7/8/8.1 install [Docker Toolbox for Windows](https://docs.docker.com/toolbox/toolbox_install_windows/)
+
+
+Before going further, make sure you have `docker` and `docker-compose` installed in your system by typing in a terminal:
+
+```
+docker --version
+```
+```
+docker-compose --version
+```
+
+You should see a similar output:
+
+![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/75517/51273280-a132e200-19cc-11e9-914e-d54610f43ad6.png)
+
+**Note for Windows users**: you can use **git-bash** (the shell included in git) as a terminal.
+
+## Clone the AzerothCore repository
+
+You need to clone the AzerothCore repository (or use your own fork):
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk.git
+```
+
+Now cd into the main directory using `cd azerothcore-wotlk`. **All commands will have to be run from this position**.
+
+## WoW Client Data files
+
+You also need to have the data files. Check the step "5) Download the data files" from the [installation guide](https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/wiki/Installation#5-download-the-data-files).
+
+Put your data files into the `docker/worldserver/data/` folder that is inside `azerothcore-wotlk`.
+
+## Installation
+
+Inside your terminal (if you use Windows, use git bash), run the following commands.
+
+**1) Generate your server configuration files:**
+
+```
+./bin/acore-docker-generate-etc
+```
+
+**2) Compile AzerothCore:**
+```
+./bin/acore-docker-build
+```
+This will take a while. Meanwhile you can go and drink a glass of wine :wine_glass:
+
+**3) Run the containers**
+```
+docker-compose up
+```
+
+Docker will build and run your containers. Meanwhile you will see messages like:
+
+> Could not connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1: Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111)
+
+> Retrying in 10 seconds...
+
+**Don't panic**. Your server processes are simply waiting for the database container to be ready, it can take a while (depends on your machine).
+
+Your server will be up and running shortly. The default password of the root DB user will be `password`.
+
+### Docker reference & support requests
+
+For server administrators, we recommend to read the [Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/) as well as the [Docker Compose reference](https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/overview/).
+
+If you want to be an administrator of an AzerothCore production server, it helps if you master the basics of Docker usage.
+
+Feel free to ask questions on [StackOverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/) and link them in the **#support-docker** channel of our [Discord chat](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/azerothcore). We will be happy to help you!
+
+# FAQ
+*Faq? Faq you!*
+
+### Where are the etc and logs folders of my server?
+
+By default they are located in `docker/authserver/` and `docker/worldserver/`.
+
+### How can I change the server configuration?
+
+You can copy the file `.env.dist`, renaming the copy in `.env` and editing it accordingly to your needs.
+
+In the `.env` file you can configure:
+
+- the location of the `data`, `etc` and `logs` folders
+- the open ports
+- the MySQL root password
+
+Then your `docker-compose up` will automatically locate the `.env` with your custom settings.
+
+### How can I start, stop, create and destroy my containers?
+
+- The `docker-compose start` will start your existing containers.
+
+- The `docker-compose stop` will stop your containers, but it won’t remove them.
+
+- The `docker-compose up` builds, (re)creates, and starts your containers.
+
+- The `docker-compose down` command will stop your containers, but it also removes the stopped containers as well as any networks that were created.
+
+### How can I run commands in the worldserver console?
+
+You can easily attach/detach from the worldserver console.
+First of all, type `docker-compose ps` to know the name of your worldserver container, it should be something like `azerothcore-wotlk_ac-worldserver_1`.
+
+**To attach**: open a new terminal tab and type `docker attach azerothcore-wotlk_ac-worldserver_1`
+
+Note for Windows users: using git bash on Windows you have to prefix this command with `winpty`. Example:
+
+`winpty docker attach azerothcore-wotlk_ac-worldserver_1`
+
+**To detach**: press `ctr+p` and `ctrl+q`.
+
+Do **NOT** try to detach using `ctrl+c` or you will kill your worldserver process!
