    Yeah! So the first thing that BuildKit provides that greatly improves build time is that it will detect and run the two stages (one, two) in parallel so the wall-clock time for your example is 5s (excluding any overhead). Without BuildKit, these would be built serially resulting in a wall-clock time of 10s (excluding any overhead).

    Additionally, BuildKit uses a content-based cache rather than a step-by-step key cache used by classical Docker. This content-based cache is intelligently reused across different builds and even re-ordered instructions. If you were to build then rebuild your example, the sleep steps would be skipped entirely as those steps are fully completed and unchanged in the content-based cache from the previous build. It will detect changes and re-build accordingly.

    Lastly, (albiet not a BuildKit feature directly) is to leverage inline build caching for things such as dependencies so they are persisted to your filesystem and mounted during build time such that you don’t have to fetch them constantly. This isn’t really necessary if leveraging BuildKit fully since the content-based cache will also handle the dependencies and only pull if changed. i.e:

    RUN --mount=type=cache,target=/root/.cache \

    Full stack is the way to go - at least to a degree such that you can understand and appreciate e2e designs, patterns, anti patterns, efficiencies, etc.

    I’d say a good way to start would be to find a project you’re interested on GitHub and check it out, play with it, and if you find something you want to change, add, or remove, just jump right in and submit a PR!

    I’ll share one of my projects I put together for a buddy’s makerspace startup that we’ve open sourced such that it can benefit from community involvement as they grow. It’s a fun little playground that’ll give you experience with a modernized Python full-stack application, designed to run on a raspberry pi, and containerized with Docker. Enjoy!

    Okay perfect, just wanted to check.

    Next I’d say check your venv to verify the pandoc binary is indeed there:

    find $VIRTUAL_ENV -name pandoc

    If it’s not there, you should be able to install it by entering a python shell from your venv and do:

    import pypandoc
pypandoc.download_pandoc()

    Hopefully that’s able to resolve it for ya. Venv should be at the front of your path so it should prefer bins from there.
