I get a lot of value out of putting bioinformatics tools in Docker containers, since once they're containerized with an automated build script (called a "Dockerfile") it's really easy to keep them up to date and manage their installations on different machines without their individual dependencies stepping all over each other. It's a really convenient way to try out new tools without taking the risk of borking your carefully-maintained "working" Linux install. Tools like boot2docker make Docker images runnable on non-Linux platforms, as well, resulting in improved portability of tools that might have platform (or even distro) specific dependencies. I've done this a couple of times, now, so I thought I'd share some tips and tricks.
