Docker / binary releases?

[edwardcwang]

Hi @mikhailmoiseev! I created a preliminary Dockerfile and Ubuntu 24.04-based release build as a proof-of-concept below. Any interest in extending more official Docker / binary release support? This would make it a lot easier for users if we don't have to compile it from scratch. Thanks so much in advance for your time and consideration!

Hi @edwardcwang.
Lets see if the binary distribution you created will be popular. Please consider there is no funding for that.

One idea is to have Github Actions auto-build and publish? GH Actions is free for public repositories like this one.

This repository is mirrow of an internal repository. Only stable release are published here. So, it would be nice to have auto-build, but I have lots of another tasks to do related to bug fixes and features.
