There's nothing wrong with using the Docker VMs to build.

I typically self-compile because I don't have an "always-on" Docker
host machine added to my personal XenServer based stack yet, but I
typically always have at least one ARM board running when I'm
developing (the machine I'm testing).  Often I've got a fast
multi-core ARM system with high-speed storage (eg: Zynq Ultrascale+,
BeagleBoard X15) on-line I can use as a build machine.

Just pick whatever works best for you.
