**Ready to try Apache Superset?** This quickstart guide will help you
get up and running on your local machine in **3 simple steps**. Note that
it assumes that you have [Docker](https://www.docker.com),
[Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/), and
[Git](https://git-scm.com/) installed.
:::caution
Although we recommend using `Docker Compose` for a quick start in a sandbox-type
environment and for other development-type use cases, **we
do not recommend this setup for production**. For this purpose please
refer to our
[Installing on Kubernetes](/docs/6.0.0/installation/kubernetes/)
page.
:::
### 1. Get Superset
```bash
git clone https://github.com/apache/superset
```
### 2. Start the latest official release of Superset
```bash
# Enter the repository you just cloned
$ cd superset
# Set the repo to the state associated with the latest official version
$ git checkout tags/6.0.0
# Fire up Superset using Docker Compose
$ docker compose -f docker-compose-image-tag.yml up
```
This may take a moment as Docker Compose will fetch the underlying
container images and will load up some examples. Once all containers
are downloaded and the output settles, you're ready to log in.
⚠️ If you get an error message like `validating superset\docker-compose-image-tag.yml: services.superset-worker-beat.env_file.0 must be a string`, you need to update your version of `docker-compose`.
Note that `docker-compose` is on the path to deprecation and you should now use `docker compose` instead.
### 3. Log into Superset
Now head over to [http://localhost:8088](http://localhost:8088) and log in with the default created account:
```bash
username: admin
password: admin
```
#### 🎉 Congratulations! Superset is now up and running on your machine! 🎉
### Wrapping Up
Once you're done with Superset, you can stop and delete just like any other container environment:
```bash
docker compose down
```
:::tip
You can use the same environment more than once, as Superset will persist data locally. However, make sure to properly stop all
processes by running Docker Compose `stop` command. By doing so, you can avoid data corruption and/or loss of data.
