Docker is a marvel in the developer world because it is that perfect deployment solution that ensures that no matter the machine you deploy your application on (https://www.docker.com/get-started), it would run exactly the same way on production environments. Docker is a must use in every company big or small but the challenge with docker is knowing exactly how to write a build configuration for your application especially if your application has specific dependencies that differ from a global set.

Feel free to run any other bash commands necessary for your application here but note that as it is the entry point of your application it would be called anytime docker tries to start your image in a container.

If you have waited for this section, I am guessing you are using GCP (Google Cloud Platform) to deploy your application and need extra guidance on it.

The main aim is to set up continuous integration for your application and deploy to GCR so that you can manually deploy revisions using cloud run but you can set up this build process at cloud run right away so that it would full-blown continuous integration and deployment managed by Cloud Run.
