Run More Stuff in Docker
This reminded me of a proof of concept thing that facilitates this kind of work.

I don't even know what it is I built, but it has been useful in some contexts.
It basically allows you to easily wrap and distribute scripts (or more complex apps) that have specific dependencies that might not always be installed in the host. It does so by wrapping the script in a docker image.
It also automates the annoying part of docker: mounting local paths for apps that need to interact with the host's file system.
I need to write a blog post on this if anything to gather feedback. I'm still not 100% sold on the idea and there are some edge cases. Still, a fun experiment.
