Yeah, I wish it were just a docker image up on the hub

  That "just" is just your favorite alternative to "npm install". There's nothing "just" about it. Like preferring it was a pip or apt install.

    Sure there is. When I’m done looking at it, I delete the Docker image and it’s gone from my system. That’s more effort with npm. Also, the docker solution works for everything. So whether it’s a node app, or python, or Go, or Ruby... the process is the same.

      Getting a docker image to performantly access a local folder across platforms is a huge challenge. I love docker but it's just not good enough at handling watched folders.

  You could create a Docker image that runs `npm install` and upload it to the hub.
