@LaurenSpiegel: After speaking with the team further, the most helpful thing would actually be setting up docker compose with a Boost container for deal-making, a Boost container for the UI and a Lotus container all in dev mode to make running locally for devs (or any first-time users of the software) easier.

Expected result: user having docker locally can test boost, and make a deal without needing to compile lotus and boost repos.

Tools to be containerized:

• lotus
• lotus-seed
• lotus-miner
• devnet (from boost repo)?
• boost
• boostd
• boostx
• boost react GUI

Tasks:

• Dockerfile for packing lotus tools in dev mode.
• Dockerfile for packing boost: containing boost, boostd, boostx.
• Dockerfile for boost GUI.
• Compose file for orchestrating everything.
• Makefile scripts for building docker containers.
• Doc with samples on how to make a deal using the compose file.
