Using Docker simplifies having all the required dependencies and tools (including most recent versions of [libimobiledevice](https://libimobiledevice.org)) readily installed. Note that this requires a Linux host, as Docker for Windows and Mac [doesn't support passing through USB devices](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/faqs/#can-i-pass-through-a-usb-device-to-a-container).
Install Docker following the [official documentation](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/).
Once Docker is installed, you can run MVT by downloading a prebuilt MVT Docker image, or by building a Docker image yourself from the MVT source repo.
### Using the prebuilt Docker image
```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/mvt-project/mvt
```
You can then run the Docker container with:
```
docker run -it ghcr.io/mvt-project/mvt
```
### Build and run Docker image from source
```bash
git clone https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt.git
cd mvt
docker build -t mvt .
```
Test if the image was created successfully:
```bash
docker run -it mvt
```
If a prompt is spawned successfully, you can close it with `exit`.
