It can also be installed using docker containers but that is more difficult to manage as you have to install every component manually.

@rah There are tons of applications which can be installed via git clone and make instal using a isolated environment like pyenv or others. So I agree.
Now I get an Haos and docker thingy which is very restrictive on most types of installs. If installed different than the maker wants, no addons or more restrictions.
