Farewell to Build Scripts as Docker Bake Goes GA
Briefly

Docker has officially launched Docker Bake, a tool aimed at simplifying complex Docker image builds by declaratively defining build stages and deployment environments. Part of Docker Desktop 4.38 and the Docker Buildx CLI Plugin, Docker Bake automates the handling of multiple build overrides which previously required shell scripts. Key features include parallelizing independent builds, deduplicating contexts, and intelligent caching, which enhance efficiency, especially for teams handling monorepos. Improvements include automatic context transfer deduplication and enhanced security via entitlements, ensuring a more streamlined and secure building process.
Docker Bake is a highly advanced tool simplifying complex Docker image builds by allowing users to declaratively define build stages and environments, enhancing efficiency.
With Docker Bake, engineers replace tedious shell scripts with HCL, YAML, or JSON to manage Docker images, streamlining the build process with improved configuration.
