Alignoth is also available as a prebuilt container through `Biocontainers <https://biocontainers.pro/tools/alignoth>`_.
37+
This image provides a ready-to-use environment with all dependencies preinstalled, making it convenient for users who prefer containerized workflows or encounter issues with native installations.
38+
39+
To pull and run the image directly from Quay.io, use:
40+
41+
.. code-block:: bash
42+
43+
docker pull quay.io/biocontainers/alignoth:<version>
44+
docker run --rm quay.io/biocontainers/alignoth:<version> alignoth --help
45+
46+
Replace ``<version>`` with the desired release tag (e.g., ``0.16.4--h1520f10_0``).
47+
A list of all available versions can also be found on the `Biocontainers page <https://biocontainers.pro/tools/alignoth>`_.
