Summary
- Structures builds with separate builder and runtime stages, copying only necessary artifacts to minimize final image size and attack surface
- Emphasizes layer caching optimization by ordering commands from least to most frequently changing, combined with .dockerignore and command consolidation
- Recommends minimal base images (Alpine, distroless, or official slim variants) with exact version pinning for reproducibility
- Covers security hardening: non-root users, build tool removal, vulnerability scanning, and secrets isolation through multi-stage separation
- Includes performance patterns like build arguments, environment variable optimization, and healthcheck configuration for production readiness
