I wouldn't be so sure about the 'lost cause'. rkt seems to be more modular than Docker which may have huge effect on the community-build tools and ecosystem around it. Ease of porting Dockerfiles to rkt format is also important. Plus, better security is a good selling point for the corporate world, I guess.
- ecnahc515 11y agoYou don't need to port Dockerfiles to anything actually if you don't want! rkt supports running Docker images, so you can keep using your Dockerfiles and the Docker build system if you wish. However, you can build rkt images (ACIs) from scratch using any build system you like if you still wish (as detailed in the blog post).
