The issue during installation on MacBook is:

"The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested" for both polis-file-server, polis-math, and polis-server.

Just a minor adjustment in the docker compose file ("platform: linux/amd64" added under service: image).

Error response from daemon: Mounts denied: The path /postgresql-data is not shared from the host and is not known to Docker.

Docker (on mac) doesnt substitute the ${ } vars in the dev.env file since it is not a shell environment

so I created (as a hack for now) "run-dev.sh":

#!/bin/sh
export ROOT_DIR=${PWD}
export DATA_DIR=${PWD}
export PARTICIAPI_DIR=${ROOT_DIR}/../particiapi
export PARTICIAPP_FRONTEND_DIR=${ROOT_DIR}/../particiapp-example-frontend
export POLIS_SERVER_NAME=polis.example.org
docker compose --env-file dev.env -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.dev.yaml up

chmod +x run-dev.sh

and then just ./run-dev.sh

After this, it was difficult to set Chrome with the parameters; easier to use Safari (and set it up with proxy)
I would suggest putting this section before starting the services

That way, when you start the service, you should see it in Safari immediately

This issue will soon become obsolete with the new version of the docker compose environment which uses git submodules rather than manual checkouts in a common base directory for which the $PWD was used.

@gberh this is feedback from @abihas (Michael) with Mac deployment.

@jgroenen do you had time to test?

I am a bit at loss here, the project https://gitlab.com/particiapp/polis is public and the visibility settings for the Docker registry is set to "Everyone With Access". According to https://docs.gitlab.com/user/packages/container_registry/#container-registry-visibility-permissions anonymous access should be possible.
I just tried in a VM to run docker pull registry.gitlab.com/particiapp/polis/server:latest and that works without asking for credentials. Could you please try that as well?
