⁠Notes

1. This images uses Alpine, https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine⁠, a small footprint Docker OS with a basic package manager in order to get a small image that would contain bash and curl. The final image should be ~9 MB.

2. This is an automated build so I chose to not use gliderlabs/alpine:latest but resorted in stable 3.1 tag.
