Sure I've put a number of things in Docker, not a total expert but have some experience.

What are you having problems with? Writing a Dockerfile or just with installing Docker itself? On Windows it should just be downloading the Docker Desktop application and installing (I run it on a Mac not Windows, but it looks the same). On Linux the OS package manager should have it though if you want to run a current version you'd have to lookup on their website on how to do that for your particular OS (on RedHat you just setup a repo for it).

Keep in mind that Docker isn't virtualization (though the Windows version does have some virtualization included).

Windows can be more difficult too as there's a bunch of limitations about what can run where.
