VM management. The dockur/windows VMs will correctly shutdown, start, pause, etc when the container is started or destroyed.

WinBoat uses Docker (specifically the dockur/windows container) to simplify the backend setup. The Docker container hosts QEMU and all the configs to automate the whole "create a VM, configure it, install Windows, configure it etc" process.
