Description

It would be great if "Installation using docker" guide will be added to documentation. Installing/compiling on bare system takes lots of time.

One can add .Dockerfile to repository as mentioned here https://docs.docker.com/reference/builder/. But, I couldn't send a pull request as it was using lots of memory while building from source and throwing "out of memory error"

Other solution would be: Use independent docker image. Here is my image: https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/jdkanani/docker-pcl/.

Research direction
Review the existing discussion in issue #1235. The user has created a Docker image at https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/jdkanani/docker pcl/. Consider whether to integrate a Dockerfile into the repository or link to a separate image. Look at the repository's documentation directory for potential location to add installation instructions. Check if there are any existing Docker related files or discussions.
