+BUILD IMAGE: docker build --tag unicon/shibuibuilder:1.0 .
+
+USE:
+If you want to simple use the existing version, you should be able to pull the image from the unicon docker hub site.
+Otherwise, build the image first using the above command.
+
+After building, if you wish to simply execute the build command using the docker-compose file in this folder do:
+> docker-compose up
+
+(or add the -d flag to the end if you don't wish to view the build output)
+
+The container will stop once the gradle build command has completed.
+
+If you wish to keep the docker container running for use as a build env, comment out the environment section of the 
+docker-compose file and then start the container and docker exec into the running container to perform whatever build
+tasks you desire.
+
+You can also alter the default "build" target in the docker-compose file as needed.
