Platform quirks
===============

Local path references and Docker builds
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When referencing local paths in the ``requires`` and ``requirement_installer_args``
configuration, be aware that those paths will not be available inside a Docker build
context. `This is a known limitation that has workarounds available if needed
<https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/issues/2081>`__, and support will eventually
be added to Briefcase so that these paths work seamlessly like they do with other build
targets.
