I am attempting a first time install of dgraph via docker, per the instructions [here](https://dgraph.io/tour/intro/2/). I use the Docker commands, not the standalone image.

I get the following output:

`The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested`

This is my first time setting up/using docker and dgraph. I know this is a docker-related problem but I got there from the official dgraph documentation.

What OS and architecture are you using?

Oh, I see “arm64”.

Dgraph doesn’t run on ARM. Unless you build your own binary.
