Lukewarm and the Cool
One day Cool
compiled another
fact and
suddenly got very sad. It was about its buddy
Bodhi. Bodhi 1.4.0 (!!) was ancient and tired.
Its mirrors broke a long time ago an it just wanted to retire.
Cool on the other hand was still full of verve and vim. So it went looking for a new companion. Soon enough Lukewarm entered its life. Lukewarm was a slick, quick-witted, up-to-date container and they immediately got along well.
They lived happily ever after. The End.

Uhm?!
In short: If you are working through the edX Compilers course you probably want Lukewarm instead of the Bodhi VM. It provides all the tools you need for developing your Cool compiler in an up-to-date container image.
Features
Lukewarm is tailored for working through the Cool assignments. It also has several improvements over the provided Bhodi VM:
- All dependencies are pre-installed
- All
Cooltools, scripts and binaries - Grading scripts are pre-installed and can be executed directly (no workarounds like in the VM)
- Work locally with your favourite tools, then compile and submit from within the container
- Predictable and lightweight
- Use it with CI/CD
- It's based on an up-to-date debian image so you can
apt-getwhat you need
Usage
docker run -it -v $PWD:/class arminfriedl/lukewarm
At first start this will set up all assignments in $PWD.
