On the contrary: Docker is currently the best way, bar none, of distributing tools like this one to developers. Kudos to the Super Linter developers for doing this right. I wrote an article a while ago arguing this point: https://jonathan.bergknoff.com/journal/run-more-stuff-in-docker/ https://jonathan.bergknoff.com/journal/run-more-stuff-in-doc...

Regarding "cross-platform": Docker for Windows used to be really terrible IMO (relied on VirtualBox, did not translate WSL paths, etc). I never managed to get the networking between VirtualBox, WSL and applications (e.g. Chrome running in Windows) working properly. Thankfully Microsoft rewrote WSL 2 in a way that makes it work much better with Docker.

  I've also had some bad experiences with Docker for windows but that was quite a few (2+ years ago) - since then it's mostly been smooth sailing for me, even without WSL

    My experience was that it used to be bad specifically because of the bad interactions with WSL (1)
