Hello all,

I'm pleased to announce that with the assistance of many, many people (see 
below), we have released an “official" Docker image for Swift 
<https://hub.docker.com/_/swift/>. 

The image contains everything needed to compile and run a Swift application, 
reliably and reproducibly. It’s based on Ubuntu 16.04 and has been used in 
production for many months now. A Docker library image such as this one 
occupies the top level namespace, so that you can simply write “FROM swift” to 
refer to the image. It has received extensive auditing for best practices and 
security by Docker experts, and will be maintained by a dedicated team of 
volunteers.

I would like to encourage everyone interested to ask questions and offer 
improvements over on the Github repo 
<https://github.com/swiftdocker/docker-swift>. Personally, I want to offer my 
thanks to Haris Amin and Oliver Letterer for their early and pioneering work on 
Dockerizing Swift, Tianon Gravi for his patient and informative feedback while 
refining the image; and all those who have contributed to its development 
<https://github.com/swiftdocker/docker-swift/graphs/contributors>.

Happy coding – I hope you make something excellent with this.

Tom
