I already gave some hints in my comment on GitHub. You need

• An FTDI USB-TTL adapter (in my tests it only worked with the FTDI adapter unfortunately. Timing appears to be very important.)
• A pogo pin adapter, not sure if you can still find one commercially available. I made my own.
• A supported computer – for some reason it didn't work on some of my computers. Checked various USB related properties and they even share the same Arch Linux. Weird.
• An old version of Qt4 and Linux – but it might also work under macOS.
  

edit: Oh, just noticed you were talking about the emulator! That's a different build target. The Docker image is for building the firmware for the physical hardware (HP 20B / 30B).
