Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I occasionally see messages like

Howdy, folks. I'm trying to get the app running and I'm having trouble with postgres/node/Rails/…

Describe the solution you'd like
Adding a Dockerfile would allow new developers to start working on a project without setting up lots of dependencies.

(Of course, it's also possible that Docker -- in creating an extra layer of indirection -- actually raises the barrier to entry.)

Describe alternatives you've considered
We could create simple scripts that check for dependencies and help the user. For example

which nvm || echo "nvm not found. See https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm"
