That would fit our vision for a new generation of Web apps with traditional server-side payloads running client-side, with lots of positive impacts on user privacy and operational costs.

The main difficulties right now are two:

* Most docker containers are 64-bit, while CheerpX currently only support 32-bit x86 code * Due to CORS limitations it is not currently possible to downloaded layers from repositories such as Docker Hub

The first limitation will be eventually fixed, the second one will require a specialized repository, a proxy, or co-operation from the existing repositories.
