Running markdeck requires privileges equivalent to root #20

I love Markdeck, but I'm having serious issues with letting it run with effectively root privileges. Docker is not a tool I can expose to unprivileged users.

How can I allow regular untrusted users to run this, without adding them to the docker group or allowing sudo access?

Thanks!

That is a good question: up until now I didn't consider it being used in a multi-user way, only as a more personal tool (thus the focus on offline-readiness). I do not consider abandoning the container approach, as it eases (even enables) the delivery of all those interconnected tools... but perhaps there are other scenarios imaginable, enabling even untrusted users to use markdeck. I will have a look into that... Any ideas are welcome!
