Docker images for an Ubuntu LTS container with fish installed as the default shell.
Useful when wanting to play around with fish in a pristine and ephemeral environment.
Useful when reproducibility is desired (e.g. controlled environment for running a fish package CI pipeline).
Not intended for developing on the fish codebase.
To build the shell from source with the help of Docker, see fish-shell's Dockerfile instead.
See image tags on DockerHub or on GitHub for available fish versions.
Images are based on the latest Ubuntu LTS available at the time of building.
