[resinOS] Dockerize your own Flask GUI with resinOS

I have been working with Docker and resin.io as well as resinOS for quite some time now and I am actively using those services actively for different projects: The possibility to just throw away a container and build it anew in record breaking time is just awesome and also the fact that I can now just ship images to some device, deploy it there - and it will just work. As some of you know, I am working as volunteer in different NPOs, i.e. the RepairCafé Trier in which I repair Computers and Mobile phones for free, the PiAndMore / CMD e.V. on which I teach interessted guys and gals about Raspberry Pi and Linux (and even did two presentations on resin.io and resinOS, both linked on this blog - and as video :)) - and also one other NPO which is trying to give information about Japanese Culture. For those events I already created an Tickting System called JCTixx, which uses QR Codes to sell and check tickets for those named festivals. However, I created the Scanner Hardware in 2010, just starting my second year in an Apprenticeship as IT Systemselectronics guy, without anything as a Raspberry Pi available. However, being a bit creative, I just took some old Linux routers, threw the good old OpenWRT on those and soldered directly to the its testpoints / CPU to get the GPIO pins I needed ;). That worked very well - however, nowadays, TLS 1.2 and such eat away those small MIPS cores - and I could - with a lot of work - just get them working with said crypto in 2015. However, being 7 years old now, I need new Scanners - and more flexible way of delivery software as well. So resinOS it is! 🙂
