# Getting started
## Installation
We put some effort in getting you started as smooth as possible.
For first tests and development you can use the Docker platform to bootstrap your environment.
Docker is a software to run containers (a.k.a images in Docker's terminology) on a Linux machine.
We use for development as well as for testing or demonstrating VILLASnode's functionality.
**Note:** Please be aware that we do not recommend to use Docker for running VILLASnode in a real-time simulation.
We prepared a image which you can download and run out of the box:
1. Download the Docker toolbox: https://www.docker.com/docker-toolbox .
This toolbox includes a virtual machine as well all the Docker tools you need to the Docker container which is provided by us.
More instructions to get with can be found here: http://docs.docker.com/windows/started/
2. After installing the toolbox, open the "Docker Quickstart Terminal"
3. Start the latest VILLASnode container by running:
```
$ docker run rwth-acs/villas-node --help
```
