 * [**One-click GUI installer:**](#one-click-gui) Choose this installation if you only want the GUI and/or keep things as simple as possible.
 * [**Pip installer:**](#pip) Choose this installation if you want to use AlphaTims as a Python package in an existing Python 3.8 environment (e.g. a Jupyter notebook). If needed, the GUI and CLI can be installed with pip as well.
 * [**Developer installer:**](#developer) Choose this installation if you are familiar with CLI tools, [conda](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/) and Python. This installation allows access to all available features of AlphaTims and even allows to modify its source code directly. Generally, the developer version of AlphaTims outperforms the precompiled versions which makes this the installation of choice for high-throughput experiments.
+* [**Docker:**](#docker) Use this installation if you want to use a container based workflow. This is usefull to preserve a clean environment or when running multiple tools that might have conflicting dependencies.
 
 ***IMPORTANT: While AlphaTims is mostly platform independent, some calibration functions require [Bruker libraries](alphatims/ext) which are only available on Windows and Linux.***

   When `zsh` is the default terminal instead of `bash`, replace `~/.bashrc` with `~/.zshrc`. On Windows, the command `where alphatims` can be used to find the location of the binary executable. This path can then be (permanently) added to Windows' path variable.
 * When using Jupyter notebooks and multiple conda environments direcly from the terminal, it is recommended to `conda install nb_conda_kernels` in the conda base environment. Hereafter, running a `jupyter notebook` from the conda base environment should have a `python [conda env: alphatims]` kernel available, in addition to all other conda kernels in which the command `conda install ipykernel` was run.
