 From now on you can make changes to the `README.md` file and use your latest compiled version of `pangler` to tangle and compile it.
 
+### Using Docker
+
+An alternative way to compile the project is using Docker.
+Run the following from the root of the project without the need to install Rust locally.
+
+```sh
+docker run --rm --user "$(id -u)":"$(id -g)" -v "$PWD":/usr/src/pangler -w /usr/src/pangler rust:latest cargo build --release
+```
+
+See the [official documentation](https://hub.docker.com/_/rust) for more information.
+
+The executable will be in `target/release/pangler`.

 ## Weaving: generating the documentation
 
 As explained above we use [`pandoc`](https://pandoc.org/) as a weaver.
