I have updated the Dockerfile with the following items

1. Changed node:16-alpine to node:17-alpine
2. Grouped ENV one-line
3. Write out the directory /usr/src/app/ instead of storing it in ENV
4. Indicate WORKDIR is /usr/src/app as the starting point

Thanks for this :-)

Combining ENVs might make the build time slightly shorter but it doesn't actually reduce the number of image layers.

Removing the WORKDIR environment variable also arguably creates unnecessary repetition.

Did you consider multi-stage builds?

Did you consider combining more commands?

Did you consider creating Dockerfile from scratch (https://hub.docker.com/_/scratch)?

There are many techniques for creating small Dockerfiles, which ones did you consider and why have you decided not to use them?

Thanks .

Any progress @acald-creator?
