Aurélien Geron (Oct 01 2024 at 01:01): Aurélien Geron (Oct 01 2024 at 01:01):I found it difficult to locate the official docker images at hub.docker.com/u/roclang:
roc, roc-lang, or roc lang on hub.docker.com returns many unrelated results, but not the right one. You have to search for roclang, which I did not think of trying.roc docker also yields unrelated results. Searching for roc lang docker leads to issue #6045 which talks about adding an official image on Docker Hub. There was no link to the official images there (just a comment by @Anton , which is how I found the images), so I just added a comment pointing to them.Could we also point to the official Docker image on roc-lang.org and/or github.com/roc-lang/roc? I'll submit a PR to add a docker/README.md file pointing to the official images.

Luke Boswell (Oct 01 2024 at 01:18):Also we should add to the website somewhere
Luke Boswell (Oct 01 2024 at 01:19):Maybe here? https://github.com/roc-lang/roc/blob/main/www/content/install/index.md
Luke Boswell (Oct 01 2024 at 01:20):Would Install be a good place? it doesn't feel like something that lives in Documentation
Aurélien Geron (Oct 01 2024 at 01:22):I agree, /install seems like the best place for this.
I just submitted PR #7134 to add docker/README.md. I'll submit another PR to add this on the install page.
Aurélien Geron (Oct 01 2024 at 01:34):I just submitted PR #7135 to point to the official Docker images on roc-lang/install. I kept it very simple, but we can add a Docker section if you think that would be useful.
Aurélien Geron (Oct 01 2024 at 01:47):I added a few more examples to the first PR, in case beginners want to try it out.
