You should install docker ce in your host system. For instructions: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install I highly recommend reading the Postinstall, so you can run your containers without sudo

# Make a shortcut (you must run it from inside the container)
distrobox-export --app /opt/resolve/bin/resolve
