+### Docker
+
+You can easily install whipper by making use of the included Dockerfile without needing to care about the required dependencies:
+
+`docker build -t whipper/whipper:0.7-git -t whipper/whipper:latest`
+
+It's recommended to create an alias for a convenient usage:
+
+```bash
+alias whipper="docker run -ti --rm --device=/dev/cdrom \
+    -v ${PWD}/config:/home/worker/.config/whipper \
+    -v ${PWD}/output:/output \
+    whipper/whipper"
+```
+
+You should put this e.g. into your `.bash_aliases`. Also keep in mind to substitude the path definitions to something that fits to your needs (e.g. replace `… -v ${PWD}/output:/output …` with `… -v ${HOME}/ripped:/output \ …`).
+
+Finally you can test the correct installation:
+
+```
+whipper -v
+whipper drive list
+```
