I disagree - you should ensure your dependencies are clearly listed. Docker excels at this - it's a host platform independent way of giving you a text based representation of an environment.
- arp242 3y agoDocker is a Linux thing, and very much not host-platform independent. It's just "chroot on steroids", and you're essentially just shipping a bunch of Linux binaries in a .tar.gz. It works on other systems because they emulate or virtualize enough of a Linux system to make it work. That's all fine, but comes with serious trade-offs in terms of performance, system integration, and things like that. A fair trade-off, but absolutely not host-platform independent.
