What is the best way to install ES & Kibana `v8.1.0` using Docker?  
I tried many tutorials but, seems that there are many security constraints that make the process trickier e.g. `password`, `enrollment_token` .... etc.

And for setting up the password for Kibana & ES in `.env` file, from where to get that password?

Also, how can I test the availability using `curl`? Whenever I try to test using curl I get this response:  
`curl: (52) Empty reply from server`
