Follow the steps below documented in the link above:
docker pull docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:8.8.1
docker network create elastic
docker run --name es01 --net elastic -p 9200:9200 -it docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:8.8.1
Open docker desktop, click on Containers, click on es01 container and check to see if elastic started successfully. If things worked properly, you will need find a block of output like this:
Copy the http_ca.crt security certificate from your Docker container to your local machine. You will need this to be able to call into elastic from your code
docker cp es01:/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certs/http_ca.crt .
If you are on windows, check to make sure your elastic environment started properly. If it fails, you may need to do some additional configuration on your virtual machine. For one, you will need to increase the memory to WSL an and elastic container. Here are some of the commands that maybe required. Open a command prompt as administrator
wsl --set-default-version 2 wsl -d docker-desktop sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
Edit wsl memory configuration and increase it to 4Gb. Open Ubuntu terminal and edit /etc/wsl.conf and add this
[wsl2] memory=4GB
You will need to copy and save the elastic password and also the enrollment token.
docker run -d --name kibana --net elastic -p 5601:5601 kibana:8.8.0
Login to Kibana on your browser from the following link:
On the first time launch, you will need to login and then Kibana will prompt you for the enrollment token. This token is only good for 30 minutes. If you take longer than that, you will need to create a new token. See here for more details on that.

curl --cacert http_ca.crt -u "elastic:elastic-password" https://localhost:9200
