**NOTE**: Depending on your host OS, you may experience errors when trying to install plugins or themes (e.g. `Warning: Could not create directory.`). This is typically because the user ID used within the container does not have write access to the mounted directories created by `wp-env`. To resolve this, run the `docker-compose` command directly from the directory created by `wp-env` and add `-u $(id -u)` and `-e HOME=/tmp` the `run` command as options:

```sh
$ cd ~/wp-env/500cd328b649d63e882d5c4695871d04
$ docker-compose run --rm -u $(id -u) -e HOME=/tmp cli [plugin|theme] install <plugin|theme>
```
