We will reconsider github issue tracker once there are access control features available. + +## Why do you use Docker? + +Building fuzzers requires building your library with a fresh Clang compiler and special compiler flags. +An easy-to-use Docker image is provided to simplify toolchain distribution. This also limits our exposure +to multitude of Linux varieties and provides a reproducible and (more) secure environment for fuzzer +building and execution. + +If you'd like to get more familiar with how libFuzzer-style fuzzers work in +general, check out [this page](http://llvm.org/docs/LibFuzzer.html).
