If you still want to try to use a non-Linux OS, you can set it up as follows:
- Windows: [Docker Desktop on Windows](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/windows-install/) or [WSL 2](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/wsl/).
- macOS: [Docker Desktop on Mac](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/mac-install/).
+ - Immich runs well in a virtualized environment when running in a full virtual machine.
+ The use of Docker in LXC containers is [not recommended](https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Linux_Container), but may be possible for advanced users.
+ If you have issues, we recommend that you switch to a supported VM deployment.
- **RAM**: Minimum 4GB, recommended 6GB.
- **CPU**: Minimum 2 cores, recommended 4 cores.
