I want to install the Open Notebook tool. Docker Desktop is installed. First, I need to download the docker-compose.yml file with the curl command, then change the OPEN_NOTEBOOK_ENCRYPTION_KEY section in the file with a unique password. At the last stage, I need to complete the installation by running the docker compose up -d command. Are there any other settings or steps I should pay attention to in this process?

Before starting, check which OS we are on and if the necessary tools (e.g., Python, Node.js, Git, Docker) are installed. Install any missing ones step-by-step according to this system.
Create a new, empty folder to work in. Do not touch any files outside this folder and do not delete anything. Tell me what you are going to do in one sentence before running each command.
