What? That's absolutely ideal! It's incredibly simple. I wish deployment processes were always that simple! Docker is not going to make your deployment process simpler than that.

I did enjoy the deep dive into figuring out what was taking a long time when compiling.

One thing I like about Alpine Linux is how easy and dumbproof it is to make packages. It's not some wild beast like trying to create `.deb` files.

If anyone out there is already fully committed to using only Alpine Linux, I'd recommend trying creating native packages at least once.

I'm not familiar with .deb packages, but one thing I love about Arch Linux is PKGBUILD and makepkg. It is ridiculously easy to make a package.
