I would recommend using Tutor since it is the official Docker-based [Open edX](https://openedx.org/) distribution, both for production and local development.

You can learn more about Tutor here  
[https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/index.html](https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/index.html)

Installation instructions can be found here  
[https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/install.html](https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/install.html)

Finally, there is also a Tutor Discourse forum similar to this one you can visit at

> **[Overhang.IO](https://discuss.overhang.io/)**

> A place to discuss Tutor and Open edX deployment

I hope this answers your question.

I am not familiar with the bitnami installation.

As you will find here

`As announced when we released Lilac, the [Tutor](https://docs.tutor.overhang.io/) installation method is now the only supported way of installing the Maple release`
