Why another MikTeX Docker Image?

• MikTeX original containers do not provide installations based on Ubuntu LTS.
• MikTeX original containers are infrequently updated (>1 year).
• MikTeX original containers aren't smaller (less download time).
• pyTooling has control over preinstalled commonly used LaTeX packages (amsfonts/amsmath, babel, hyperref, longtables, ...)
• pyTooling can derive specific images for e.g. Sphinx.
