Flat Assembler (Dockerized)

I wanted to learn assembly and decided to use one of the best assemblers known to man - Flat Assembler (a.k.a fasm). My problem was... my personal computer is a MacBook Pro with an M2 chip. And guess what, fasm doesn't support that yet.

Hence, the workaround: I can play with it in the terminal through Docker. Thank God for that.

Usage

All you gotta know is...

Build the Image

make build

It uses docker build under the hood and will display some logs in the process. The image it builds is gonna be tagged as fasm:latest. The build is based on ubuntu:latest (and if you want to change the base OS, you can of course just change it in the Dockerfile).

Run and Attach to the Container

make run

Runs the image in interactive mode so you can play with fasm. As soon as you exit out of it, the container will be removed for convenience.

If you'd like to keep the container after exiting, remove the --rm flag from the run routine in the Makefile.
