    In this case, upgrade anaconda or your compiler or use the python from your OS or package manager instead. Or (**NOT recommended**) copy/link the library from your system (e.g. /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6) to anaconda's library directory (e.g. ~/Anaconda3/lib/).
 
 ### Docker: 
-   - Alternatively, you can also use docker to run AQuery.
-   - Type `make docker` to build the docker image from scratch. 
-   - For Arm-based Mac users, you would have to build and run the x86_64 docker image because MonetDB doesn't offer official binaries for arm64 Linux. (Run `docker buildx build --platform=linux/amd64 -t aquery .` instead of `make docker`)
+   - See installation instructions from [docker.com](https://www.docker.com). Run docker desktop to start docker engine.
+   - In AQuery root directory, type `make docker` to build the docker image from scratch. 
+   - For Arm-based Mac users, you would have to build and run the **x86_64** docker image because MonetDB doesn't offer official binaries for arm64 Linux. (Run `docker buildx build --platform=linux/amd64 -t aquery .` instead of `make docker`)
    - Finally run the image in **interactive** mode (`docker run -it --rm aquery`)
 ## Usage
 `python3 prompt.py` will launch the interactive command prompt. The server binary will be automatically rebuilt and started.
