@kamilkloch thanks for pointing out the issue, it looks like the Dockerfile may have been neglected in the main repository. You can however find many examples of Theia docker images at the following repo: https://github.com/theia-ide/theia-apps.

@vince-fugnitto Thanks from pointing me to the Theia example images!

@kamilkloch glad to help!

@marcdumais-work @svenefftinge should the Dockerfile present under the example-browser be removed (as it does not seem to be maintained) or should it be updated? I also understand that users must now log into play-with-docker to try it out.

+1 to remove.

We already have a link to an equivalent from theia-apps in the README
