+# Aseprite-Docker
+
+Dockerfile & composer to build aseprite in a container
+
+## Building
+
+```bash
+docker build -t aseprite-docker/linux-x86:dev .
+```
+
+## Running & building
+
+```bash
+docker compose up
+```
+
+Build output is written to `./build/bin` on the host or `/usr/local/app/aseprite/build/bin` on the container
+
+## Running without building
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -it --entrypoint /usr/bin/bash -v ./build:/usr/local/app/aseprite/build aseprite-docker/linux-x64:dev
+# you can still start the build by running './build.sh'
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- If the files are not written to the host after / during the build, try deleting `./build`
