But I'm sure you will tell me in the issues if something doesn't work. :) I don't really know how to change the config wihtout going through menuconfig manually, so that might be a problem.. I haven't really looked into it too much though. + +## Can I use this on Windows? +Yes, but docker doesn't run natively on Windows. Tools like boot2docker or docker-machine create a Linux VM using VirtualBox. So in order to grant the docker image access to your serial port and your project folder you have to pass your serial port (or usb serial adapter) through to the vm and the same applies for your project folder. +Read this for more information on that: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30864466/whats-the-best-way-to-share-files-from-windows-to-boot2docker-vm + +## Can I use this on Mac OS X? +Probably yes. If docker runs natively on Mac OS X, then there is no need to do anything special. Otherwise follow the same steps that are required for Windows as described above.
