Description
The [Install using the apt repository](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/#install-using-the-repository) section in documentations shows the commands to add docker repository to apt. Issue is that fish shell doesn't support $(...) syntax and gives error
Location
https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/
Suggestion
This can be solved by adding other shell tabs like for fish or bash can be forced to run on that single line using bash -c or just a mention to use bash -c in case using other shells
More than happy to make a pr for it :)
