In the following guide, i will explain how to install Docker engine and Portainer on your TerraMaster NAS running TOS5 and TOS6.

We'll use these apps later to deploy docker containers, an alternative to the native apps available to download from tmnascommunity.

At the time of written this guide, for TOS5 ARMv8.2 there is no separate app for docker engine. Docker is bundled in the app Docker Manager. If you have such a system go to section b)

Now we need to install Portainer, a container management tool.
