Apply the skills you developed in this chapter by working on these exercises:

• Display an error to the user if they’re trying to run the application on an operating system that’s not in your list of supported platforms.
• Use the cross-compilation techniques to cross-build other applications you developed throughout the book. Some applications may require tuning or OS-specific data or files to work properly on multiple platforms.
• Use the Dockerfile examples provided in this chapter to build container images for other applications you developed in this book. For example, the REST API server you developed in ​Developing a REST API Server​, is a good candidate to run as a Linux container.
