This is a slightly tweaked version of the amazing work by makebot team who built an ESP8266 wifi based UDP <-> serial bridge.
Update your projects WORKDIR path in the Dockerfile.
Then build the project.
docker build -t esp8266-build-bridge .
docker run -v /Users:/Users -t esp8266-build-bridge make
make flash
