I'd like to setup a docker container and share it with my co-workers so we all don't have to setup development environments individually.
Note that this does not include saving the container as an image and uploading to DockerHub (search around for that part). Its also worth noting that this set of instructions would be a good start for creating a "dockerfile" which would automatically run all of these commands to build up this container on-demand.
docker pull ubuntu
docker run --privileged=true -it -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:ro -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb ubuntu
// As root in the docker container:
apt-get update
apt-get install vim vifm ssh sshd iproute2 iputils-ping sshfs build-essential dos2unix git usbutils
adduser mydevuser
/etc/init.d/ssh start
ip a
// As mydevuser user in the docker container:
- Download and unzip gcc compilers from ARM (gcc-arm-none-eabi-8-2019-q3-update-linux.tar.bz2)

- Download and unzip soft device (s113nrf52701.zip)
- Download and unzip command line tools (nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_4_1_Linux-amd64.tar.gz)
