What does multi-stage build in Docker accomplish?

Key points

  • Multi-stage builds help reduce the size of the final image by separating the build environment from the runtime environment.
  • Each stage in a multi-stage build can have its own dependencies and tools.
  • The final stage is the only one that matters for the end user, optimizing the image for production use.
