Prerequisites

A) ## Domain Name During installation, you'll be asked to point a wildcard DNS entry to your Captain IP Address. If you need help with domain name, see Domain and DNS. This will cost you as low as $2 a year.

B) ## Server with a Public IP Captain has to be installed on a machine with a public IP address. If you need help with Public IP, see Server & Public IP address. This will cost you as low as $5 a month. If you use the DigitalOcean referral code, you'll get $10 credit - two months worth of free server: https://m.do.co/c/6410aa23d3f3

Note that you can install Captain on your laptop which is behind NAT (your router) for testing purposes, but it requires some special setup, like port forwarding.

C) ## Install Docker on Server (at least, version 17.06.x) If you get your server from DigitalOcean, you can select a server with "pre-installed Docker". This will be the easiest option. Otherwise, you can install Docker CE by following this instruction: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation
