+## Using Containers
+
+Using containers via **Podman** or **Docker** brings benefit, whether it is to build a container image or
+run a node while keeping a minimum footprint on your local system.
+
+This document mentions using `podman` or `docker`. Those are usually interchangeable and it is encouraged using preferably **Podman**. If you have podman installed and want to use all the commands mentioned below, you can simply create an alias with `alias docker=podman`.
+
+There are a few options to build a node within a container and inject a binary inside an image.
+
+### Parity built container image
+
+Parity builds and publishes a container image that can be found as `docker.io/parity/polkadot-parachain`.
+
+### Parity CI image
+
+Parity maintains and uses internally a generic "CI" image that can be used as a base to build binaries: [Parity CI container image](https://github.com/paritytech/scripts/tree/master/dockerfiles/ci-linux):
+
+The command below allows building a Linux binary without having to even install Rust or any dependency locally:
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -it \
+	-w /shellhere/cumulus \
+    -v $(pwd):/shellhere/cumulus \
+    paritytech/ci-linux:production
+		cargo build --release --locked --bin polkadot-parachain
+sudo chown -R $(id -u):$(id -g) target/
+```
+
+If you want to reproduce other steps of CI process you can use the following
+[guide](https://github.com/paritytech/scripts#gitlab-ci-for-building-docker-images).
+
+### Injected image
+
+Injecting a binary inside a base image is the quickest option to get a working container image. This only works if you were able to build a Linux binary, either locally, or using a container as described above.
+
+After building a Linux binary ()`polkadot-parachain`) with cargo or with Parity CI image as documented above, the following command allows producing a new container image where the compiled binary is injected:
+
+```bash
+./docker/scripts/build-injected-image.sh
+```
+
+### Container build
+
+Alternatively, you can build an image with a builder pattern. This options takes a while but offers a simple method for anyone to get a working container image without requiring any of the Rust toolchain installed locally.
+
+```bash
+docker build \
+	--tag $OWNER/$IMAGE_NAME \
+	--file ./docker/polkadot-parachain_builder.Containerfile .
+```
+
+You may then run your new container:
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -it \
+	$OWNER/$IMAGE_NAME \
+		--collator --tmp \
+		--execution wasm \
+		--chain /specs/westmint.json
+```
