[OPTIONAL] But Wait, There’s More! Understanding Git and Docker

You might be wondering, “Why do I need Git and Docker?” Great question! Let’s break it down:

Git: Your Project’s Time Machine

Git is like a magical diary for your projects. It keeps track of every change, allowing you to revisit any version at any time. This means you can experiment fearlessly, knowing you can always roll back if needed.

Docker: Your Personal App Shipper

Docker is the ultimate packing tool for your applications. It bundles your app with all its dependencies into a neat package called a container. This ensures your app runs consistently across different environments, eliminating those pesky “it works on my machine” issues.

Why Does SCAN Need Git and Docker?

SCAN leverages Git and Docker to provide a seamless and reliable experience:

Version Control: With Git, SCAN ensures that all changes are tracked, making collaboration and troubleshooting a breeze.

Consistent Environments: Docker allows SCAN to run in isolated environments, ensuring that it behaves the same way on every machine.

Behind the Scenes: What the Installer Does

Curious about the magic happening under the hood? Here’s a sneak peek:

1. Checks for Git and Docker: The installer verifies that Git and Docker are installed on your system. If they’re missing, it provides guidance on setting them up.

2. Sets Up SCAN: It installs SCAN’s core components, ensuring everything is configured correctly.

3. Final Touches: Performs any necessary configurations to ensure SCAN runs smoothly.

And that’s it! You’re now ready to explore the full potential of SCAN. Happy scanning!
