#3If you already have x86 to WASM, what do you need docker for? Seems like you already have all the encapsulation you could want at that point.

Docker is not just a container runner, it's also an API for interacting with them, a container creation language (Dockerfile), and more.
Being able to run Docker enables you to get access to all these tools and build the Docker containers from other projects.

#8If you're bored (or your code is still compiling), you can also try:
SerenityOS: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=serenity (one of their developers contributed PAE support to v86, which is extra cool. I believe it contains their own browser.)
ReactOS: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=reactos
Haiku: https://copy.sh/v86/?profile=haiku
9front: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=9front
Android: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=android
KolibriOS: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=kolibrios
HelenOS: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=helenos
Oberon: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=oberon
QNX: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=qnx
Windows 95 with IE 3: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows95-boot
Windows 98 with IE 5: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows98 (run networking.bat)
Windows 2000 with IE 6: http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows2000 (run networking.bat)
v86 running in v86 (the inner one is running in node): https://copy.sh/v86/?profile=archlinux&c=./v86-in-v86.js
As well as most BSDs and Linuxes, as long as they still have i686 support.

Not until we can have a browser within this docker container
