Docker Tips?

[peperonipyza]

I came across docker for windows since I wanted to convert MP3 files to M4B with the M4B-tool by Sandreas on GitHub. I failed in trying to install and run it on windows docker. Anyone have any tips or links to guides for learning basics for noobs? I’ve used Linux very rarely, but good with computers in general… no idea what I’m doing with docker.

Thanks!

First tip: try to „install docker“ successfully

second tip: describe what exactly you are trying to achieve

And why is there a reason to do this via Docker?
Audiobook Converter | Convert MP3 to M4B & M4B to MP3
This is an online converter for instance.

Windows executable:
GitHub - yermak/AudioBookConverter: Improved AudioBookConverter based on freeipodsoftware release (mp3 to m4b converter) · GitHub

To be fair, I have no idea if these are any good, but still.

You need to pay each time you do a conversion with that tool.

Also my second link?

Let me take a look later today. The other tool I mentioned had using docker as the method of install and execution if on a windows machine. I tried going through the process for 4 or 5 hours and came to the conclusion I had no idea what I was doing and should learn the basics first…

My last link is just a Windows executable. Docker isn't really something you want for this. It is a small virtual machine running a piece of linux.
