Author here: it actually doesn't break. Been running it for 1,5 years. It's bash, there isn't much that can break. And it uses Docker cli with no hackery or experimental options.

The only thing I am working on right now: a way to avoid building special images for MacBooks or ARMs, but rather have a patch-tool (a bash script, essentially), which would pull any image you want from Docker Hub and then run patches on it (patches are also simple, readable Bash scripts which would work kind of like migrations for DBs), so that you will quickly have a Dock-compatible image and if you wanted a Python or a Ruby env you'd use an extra set of included patches or write your own.

It sounds more complex than it would actually work, honestly.
