Multi-Stage Build

Multi-Stage Docker Build

Definition

A multi-stage Docker build uses multiple FROM statements in a single Dockerfile to separate build-time dependencies from the final runtime image. Build tools, compilers, and test dependencies exist only in intermediate stages and are discarded in the final image.

This produces minimal, secure production images without complex external build scripts.
