How to Install SonarQube using Docker Compose on Ubuntu 22.04

Introduction: SonarQube is an open-source platform developed by SonarSource for continuous inspection of code quality. It helps developers write cleaner, safer, and more reliable code by analyzing and detecting code smells, bugs, security vulnerabilities, and other quality issues. Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. By combining SonarQube with Docker Compose, you can easily set up and manage SonarQube instances in your development environment. In this guide, we will walk through the step-by-step process of installing SonarQube using Docker Compose on Ubuntu 22.04.
