optionally a set of runtime arguments. For more information, see
[Configure runc drop-in replacements](/reference/cli/dockerd.md#configure-runc-drop-in-replacements).

To add youki as a container runtime:
To add youki as a container runtime, follow the [Getting started](https://youki-dev.github.io/youki/user/basic_setup.html#getting-started) section of the official setup guide.

1. Install youki and its dependencies.

For instructions, refer to the
[official setup guide](https://youki-dev.github.io/youki/user/basic_setup.html).

2. Register youki as a runtime for Docker by editing the Docker daemon
configuration file, located at `/etc/docker/daemon.json` by default.

The `path` key should specify the path to wherever you installed youki.

```console
# cat > /etc/docker/daemon.json <<EOF
{
"runtimes": {
"youki": {
"path": "/usr/local/bin/youki"
}
}
}
EOF
```

3. Reload the daemon's configuration.

```console
# systemctl reload docker
```

Now you can run containers that use youki as a runtime.
Once you've completed the setup, run containers with youki using the `--runtime` flag:

```console
$ docker run --rm --runtime youki hello-world
