Building

Use the included build.sh script. At its simplest, to build the image for the currently-running platform using the default builder (buildkit) run:

./build.sh

Run ./build.sh --help to see all command-line options. The build script supports building for multiple platforms with the --platforms option and a choice of builders (buildx and depot] with the --builder option.
