How to update Docker Compose

Open update page ↗

Always install releases from the project itself. Firmwarely links out; it never hosts downloads.

FAQ

What is the latest version of Docker Compose?

Version 5.7.0, released Nov 2, 2026. This page is refreshed every hour from the project's release page.

How do I update Docker Compose?

See the step-by-step above. Pull the new image or package and restart the service. Read the release notes and back up the data directory first; most projects can't downgrade once the database has migrated.

How does Firmwarely know when there's a new version?

Every hour we read the project's official release page for Docker Compose and record the version, date and changelog. Subscribers watching it get an email when it changes: the next morning on Pro, in the Monday roundup on the free plan.

Is this an official Docker page?

No. Firmwarely is independent. Project and product names belong to their owners; always install releases from the project's own source.
