Hello,
I have been trying to resolve this on another forum but to no avail. They have told me to ask you what to do in this case.
I am using Mac OS X the latest Apple Silicon version of MacBook Air and latest version of Ventura 13.5.
After I open Docker and then open Terminal and enter the command ‘docker compose up’, this is the error I am getting:
docker: ‘compose’ is not a docker command.
See ‘docker --help’
I am not sure if this has to do with some docker command update related to Mac, but it seems that it won’t recognise docker compose up as a command at all. I guess there is a different command instead of this one to replace this one? Is there any such alternative docker command?

In addition to my previous comment, I decided to look into ‘docker --help’, and this is what I got after I entered it:

Please, I need some help, I am extremely lost and confused and just don’t get it. Can anybody help with a step to step on how to have this fixed as I am very new to this and it seems very complicated and confusing to me?
Thank you,
