Docker on Windows requires Windows 10. Running Docker on Windows 7 requires a workaround. The tutorial is stating correct information.
It is also correct to perform the steps as described in the tutorial. The tutorial says: Download and run Jenkins <https://jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/tour/getting-started/#download-and-run-jenkins> 1. Download Jenkins <http://mirrors.jenkins.io/war-stable/latest/jenkins.war>. 2. Open up a terminal in the download directory. 3. Run java -jar jenkins.war --httpPort=8080. 4. Browse to http://localhost:8080. 5. Follow the instructions to complete the installation. The Jenkins executable file (jenkins.war) is downloaded (by the browser of your choice or wget or curl or another program). Open a Windows command prompt window (terminal) in the download directory. Assure that Java 8 is the Java version you're running (`java -version`). Run java -jar jenkins.war Once that is running, open a web browser to http://localhost:8080/ None of those steps have involved Docker in any way. The requirement for Docker comes later in the tutorial. The tutorial is trying to state all the requirements in advance. Those first 5 steps don't use Docker. Thanks!
