OSMAnd can be switched to use OSRM I think, but that requires a reliable
wireless broadband on the android phone, something that is becoming
worse rather than better. Even driving down the M5 I get gaps in
reception, so everything has to be local, which OSMAnd does a good job
of for most things ... just not B/unclassified roads :(

Docker is yet another infrastructure tool to get ones head around ...
