Publishing a Docker Container for Microsoft Edit to the GitHub Container Registry

The author details the process of creating and publishing a Docker image for Microsoft's new terminal text editor, Edit, to the GitHub Container Registry. Faced with a lack of official Apple Silicon builds, the author created a Docker container to run the aarch64-linux-gnu version on their Mac. The post walks through building a multi-stage Docker image to minimize size, using a GitHub Personal Access Token to push the image, and provides a simple command for anyone with an Apple Silicon Mac and Docker to run Edit.
