I tried following tutorial on youtube, but I'm unable to set it up on my laptop.

Nor I'm able to run docker & algorand daemons.

Oh yeah i was facing same problem earlier.

if you're finding it hard to Install & run sandbox.

Here's what you exactly need to do....

  1. Make sure you've DockerDesktop Installed

    If not watch this video from Algorand youtube playlist to install it.

    Here's link to official playlist by algorand

  2. Make sure you've got UBUNTU WSL (AKA Windows Subsystem Linux) Installed

    if not go to windows store & search ubuntu wsl > Install it.

  3. once you've both docker & ubuntu WSL installed

    you can simply open ubuntu in terminal

Now you'll need to clone sandbox.

Clone sandbox from github.

https://github.com/algorand/sandbox

once you've cloned sandbox.

you can run it by using following command

./sandbox up

and Violla it works.
