### Default and prefered installation method for EGroupware is via your Linux package manager:
* [Installation & Update instructions](https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/wiki/Installation-using-egroupware-docker-RPM-DEB-package)
* [Distribution specific instructions](https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/wiki/Distribution-specific-instructions)
> Every other method (including a developer installation by cloning the repo) is way more complicated AND does not include all features, as part's of EGroupware are running in different containers, eg. the push-server!
### Installing EGroupware 21.1 via Docker for non-Linux environments or not supported Linux distros:
EGroupware 21.1 can be installed via Docker, in fact the DEB/RPM packages also does that. Instructions on how to run EGroupware in Docker are in our [Wiki](https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/wiki/Docker-compose-installation) and in [doc/docker](https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/tree/21.1/doc/docker) subdirectory.
### Installing EGroupware development version via Docker:
* this is the prefered developer installation, as it contains eg. a push-server container
