+Building OpenCV.js with Docker
+---------------------------------------
+
+Alternatively, the same build can be can be accomplished using [docker](https://www.docker.com/) containers which is often easier and more reliable, particularly in non linux systems. You only need to install [docker](https://www.docker.com/) on your system and use a popular container that provides a clean well tested environment for emscripten builds like this, that already has latest versions of all the necessary tools installed.
+
+So, make sure [docker](https://www.docker.com/) is installed in your system and running. The following shell script should work in linux and MacOS:
+
+@code{.bash}
+git clone https://github.com/opencv/opencv.git
+cd opencv
+docker run --rm --workdir /code -v "$PWD":/code "trzeci/emscripten:latest" python ./platforms/js/build_js.py build_js
+@endcode
+
+In Windows use the following PowerShell command:
+
+@code{.bash}
+docker run --rm --workdir /code -v "$(get-location):/code" "trzeci/emscripten:latest" python ./platforms/js/build_js.py build_js
+@endcode
+
+@note
+The example uses latest version of [trzeci/emscripten](https://hub.docker.com/r/trzeci/emscripten) docker container. At this time, the latest version works fine and is `trzeci/emscripten:sdk-tag-1.38.32-64bit`
