Hi @dor2727. Thanks for contributing.

What's the advantage of having a docker file? What would we use it for?

It is a way to package code and dependencies for easy installation on Linux.

This way, any Linux user wishing to install Ready will run a single command, and the docker service will handle the rest.

Well I'm happy to have it included, if people would find it useful. I'm guessing that it needs the OpenCL support though, which might be tricky to get right?

Can we name it something that indicates the range of distros it will work on? e.g. Dockerfile-Debian?

Having OpenCL support is indeed useful, though I couldn't make it work :(

dockerfile works on all distros. I ran this dockerfile on arch.
Docker uses the kernel of the host computer, and can run any distro on top of that! :)
