We deleted our Dockerfiles: a better, faster way to build container images (rwx.com) 13 points by fourteenminutes 7mo ago ↗ HN
[–] joshuagvk 7mo ago ↗ Really interested to give this a try. I haven't used RWX for CI yet (overall my builds wouldn't have benefited enough from the caching), but docker build times are definitely a pebble in my shoe
[–] isaacvando 7mo ago ↗ We use jib at work (https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib) which also skips the Dockerfile and builds an image for a Java project directly.This certainly looks like a much nicer experience than docker build, especially given that there can be a cache hit after a cache miss.
[–] jared-jesionek 7mo ago ↗ Excited to check this out! Been using rwx and it's already much faster than github actions. Interested to see how this speeds up our builds.
[–] fourteenminutes 7mo ago ↗ Love these problems being solved at a platform level rather than just a language level.
