Clarifying the install steps

amlwwalker, you ROCK!!! Your approach will definitely help to save time in the development cycle.

First follow the steps as described for github.com/therecipe/qt for using docker. Then follow the steps as implied by amlwwalker for got-qt:

go get github.com/radovskyb/watcher
go get github.com/amlwwalker/got-qt 
cp -r got-qt $PROJECTNAME
cd $PROJECTNAME
cd qt
qtdeploy -docker build desktop .
cd deploy/linux/
./qt.sh 

OOPS "make hotload" doesn't work for linux. I tried modifying a qml file within pages/ and it didn't change update the gui to reflect the width height changes I made to the main app window. I also attempted to change a menu name from "Dark Fruit" to "Dark Fruit Blah" within both loader and production loader qml files and neither updated the main app window. These changes only came into effect after rebuilding everything, BUT the amount of time to build is the same as just github.com/therecipe/qt. If that's the case, where are the benefits of using got-qt?
