Can it help with multi-container orchestration?

Absolutely. It includes Docker Compose patterns for managing service dependencies, health checks, and internal networking to ensure robust service coordination.

Are these patterns secure for production use?

Yes, the skill includes security-first patterns such as running containers as non-root users, using read-only filesystems, and integrating vulnerability scanning tools.

How does this skill improve Docker build speeds?

It implements layer caching patterns that separate dependency installation from source code changes, ensuring that slow steps like 'npm install' are only re-run when necessary.

Does it support modern web frameworks like Next.js?

Yes, it provides specialized multi-stage Dockerfile templates optimized for Next.js standalone output to keep production images as small as possible.
