+## Where is the Dockerfile or container example?
+
+Steampipe can be run in a containerized setup. We run it ourselves that way as part of [Turbot Pipes](https://turbot.com/pipes). However, we don't publish or support a container definition because:
+
+* The CLI is optimized for developer use on the command line.
+* Everyone has specific goals and requirements for their containers.
+* Container setup requires various mounts and access to configuration files.
+* It's hard to support containers across many different environments.
+
+We welcome users to create and share open-source container definitions for Steampipe.
