Installing your own blockchain network using Hyperledger Fabric and Composer

In the previous section, we saw how easy it's to work with Hyperledger Composer using Playground. Now we'll install Composer in your own (local) machine.

We'll start with the three most important stages of installing a blockchain network:

1. Installing the prerequisites
2. Installing Hyperledger Composer (the development environment)
3. Updating the environment

We can install the blockchain network using Hyperledger Fabric by many means, including local servers, Kubernetes, IBM Cloud, and Docker. To begin with, we'll explore Docker and Kubernetes.

Setting up Docker

Docker can be installed using information provided on ...
