⁠Paketo Builders

⁠⚠️ These images are archived. No further releases will be made! ⚠️

These images, called builders, are distributed by the Paketo Buildpacks project⁠ and contain internal operating system images (see the below sections for differences), the lifecycle executables for your application, and a collection of Paketo Buildpacks. Builders can be used to build your apps using the pack CLI⁠ or other platforms that support Cloud Native Buildpacks.

The Paketo Buildpacks project distributes the following Builders:

• paketobuildpacks/builder:base → A minimal image based on Ubuntu 18.04, with the addition of a few packages (called mixins⁠) - notably, git and build-essentials
• paketobuildpacks/builder:full → An image based on Ubuntu 18.04 supplemented with common C libraries⁠
• paketobuildpacks/builder:tiny → A minimal build image (same as base), with a tiny, distroless-like run image based on Ubuntu 18.04
