+Docker Builder
+==============
+
+.. contents:: Table of Contents
+
+1. Format
+=========
+
+The Docker builder format is quite simple:
+
+    ``instruction arguments``
+
+The first instruction must be `FROM`
+
+All instruction are to be placed in a file named `Dockerfile`
+
+In order to place comments within a Dockerfile, simply prefix the line with "`#`"
+
+2. Instructions
+===============
+
+Docker builder comes with a set of instructions:
+
+1. FROM: Set from what image to build
+2. RUN: Execute a command
+3. INSERT: Insert a remote file (http) into the image
+
+2.1 FROM
+--------
+    ``FROM <image>``
+
+The `FROM` instruction must be the first one in order for Builder to know from where to run commands.
+
+`FROM` can also be used in order to build multiple images within a single Dockerfile
+
+2.2 RUN
+-------
+    ``RUN <command>``
+
+The `RUN` instruction is the main one, it allows you to execute any commands on the `FROM` image and to save the results.
+You can use as many `RUN` as you want within a Dockerfile, the commands will be executed on the result of the previous command.
+
+2.3 INSERT
+----------
+
+    ``INSERT <file url> <path>``
+
+The `INSERT` instruction will download the file at the given url and place it within the image at the given path.
+
+.. note::
+    The path must include the file name.
+
+3. Dockerfile Examples
+======================
+
+::
+
+    # Nginx
+    #
+    # VERSION               0.0.1
+    # DOCKER-VERSION        0.2
+    
+    from ubuntu
+
+    # make sure the package repository is up to date
+    run echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main universe" > /etc/apt/sources.list
+    run apt-get update
+    
+    run apt-get install -y inotify-tools nginx apache openssh-server
+    insert https://raw.github.com/creack/docker-vps/master/nginx-wrapper.sh /usr/sbin/nginx-wrapper
+
+::
+
+    # Firefox over VNC
+    #
+    # VERSION               0.3
+    # DOCKER-VERSION        0.2
+    
+    from ubuntu
+    # make sure the package repository is up to date
+    run echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main universe" > /etc/apt/sources.list
+    run apt-get update
+    
+    # Install vnc, xvfb in order to create a 'fake' display and firefox
+    run apt-get install -y x11vnc xvfb firefox
+    run mkdir /.vnc
+    # Setup a password
+    run x11vnc -storepasswd 1234 ~/.vnc/passwd
+    # Autostart firefox (might not be the best way to do it, but it does the trick)
+    run bash -c 'echo "firefox" >> /.bashrc'
