Example
Example Use
Creating a Production Node.js Dockerfile
To containerize a React or Node.js server, select the Node.js language preset, input port 3000, and check 'Enable Multi-stage Build'. The generator outputs an optimized Dockerfile that isolates node_modules and compiles assets in a separate stage, reducing final image size.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Dockerfile?
A Dockerfile is a text document that contains all the command-line instructions a user can run to assemble a Docker container image.
Should I modify the generated Dockerfile?
Yes. The generated files are template structures. You should review base images, security configs, user privileges, and production settings before deploying in a real environment.
Are my code details uploaded?
No. The generator runs locally inside your browser using JavaScript and does not send configuration details to any server.
