The initial docker builds takes a while with QEMU, while the built
docker image caches makes building locally very fast. If this is
for the purpose of reuse, one may just pull the latest version
from the docker registry, making it more efficient than just
building from the sources (without having experience with rust/cargo).
Docker builds can be performed as follows:
$ docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64 -t marcellodesales/mdbook -o type=docker .

Running the server is a matter of the following:
* Specifying a container to run exposing a given port number
* Specifying the source-code to load mounted as docker volume
At this point, just specifying the current dir of sources with md files
and the local port number the same as the server, here's what we have:
$ ls -la src
