#multiarch

I just tested Docker for Mac (native Docker), and it is just awesome!

No more hacks needed, no more always running virtual machine, wow !

Super bonus: binfmt_support is already configured, so my multiarch images are working out of the box, sweet !

Docker + multiarch = <3

Recently, I started the multiarch organization on GitHub.

Multiarch aims to provide

1. Docker images builds of Linux distributions for multiple architecture (full list on multiarch on Docker hub):

multiarch/alpine

multiarch/ubuntu-core

multiarch/ubuntu-debootstrap

multiarch/busybox

multiarch/debian-debootstrap

more incoming...

2. tools around multiarch

multiarch/docker-goxc: a ready-to-use goxc in Docker, build GO projects for multiple architectures from an x86_64 host

multiarch/true: minimalist Docker images for multiarch, ideal for testing runtime

multiarch/qemu-user-static: qemu-user-static Docker images for all architectures + a register special image that helps to configure the Kernel binfmt support

multiarch/crossbuild: multiarch cross compiling environments, cross-build C/C++ programs using Docker from an x86_64 host

3. Proof-of-concept around experimental multiarch support in Dockefile

jessie: It's systemd:i386 then.
