[Part 1: Basics] OpenClaw.AI Master Class: Create Your Own Autonomous AI Agent with Gemini and Docker

Hello, OpenClaw Part 1 students.

It seems that many people are getting stuck during the environment setup stage involving Docker, WSL2, macOS, etc., so I have created new full setup guide documents for each operating system separately from the main lecture content.

The following two documents have been newly added.

• Windows (WSL2) Dedicated Setup Guide

  • Install Docker Desktop

  • Installing WSL2 + Ubuntu and integrating with Docker

  • OpenClaw project folder / .env / docker-compose.yml / openclaw.json configuration

  • Connecting Gemini via onboarding

  • Accessing the dashboard → Pairing the device → First greeting in the chat window

• macOS Exclusive Setup Guide

  • Install Docker Desktop for Mac

  • OpenClaw project folder / .env / docker-compose.yml / openclaw.json settings

  • Connecting Gemini via Onboarding

  • From dashboard access → device pairing → to the first greeting in the chat window

Both documents aim for “a state where the first greeting message returns in the chat window without errors,” and include a compilation of frequently encountered error messages and checklists during the setup process.

👉How to check

• You can use the guide document corresponding to your OS via the link below.

  • Go to OpenClaw Full Setup Guide by OS

From now on

1. First, please follow the OS-specific setup guide thoroughly, and

2. If there are still parts that remain unresolved,

   • Current environment (Windows / macOS),

   • the command you executed,

   • If you provide the error message/screenshot
     , we can assist you more quickly.

If there are any changes, the setup documentation will be continuously supplemented and updated,
so if you get stuck at any point, please refer back to the newly uploaded guides.

Thank you!
