What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides battle-tested Docker configurations and best practices to efficiently containerize Node.js backend applications, ensuring security, reproducibility, and optimized image sizes.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Multi-stage builds: Optimize Docker image size by separating build dependencies from runtime.
• Security best practices: Implements non-root users, minimal base images, and security updates.
• Development and Production configurations: Includes separate Dockerfiles and Docker Compose files for development and production environments.
• Use Case: You need to deploy a new Node.js microservice to Kubernetes. This skill provides the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml to build a secure, efficient container image and orchestrate its services.

Quick Start

Use the docker-backend-patterns skill to generate a multi-stage Dockerfile for a Node.js application.
