Dependencies

Overleaf has many dependencies.

You should install Overleaf with Docker and docker-compose, so they will be installed automatically.

Please follow the Docker installation instructions for your platform to install Docker and docker-compose, if they are not already installed.

You should have a recent, supported version of Docker, at least version 17.09.

If docker is installed correctly, you should be able to run these commands without error:

docker --version
docker-compose --version
docker ps

Once you have Docker and docker-composed installed, have a look at the Quick Start Guide to download the docker-compose.yml file for ShareLaTeX.
