The only caveat to note is that it does use [musl libc](http://www.musl-libc.org) instead of [glibc and friends](http://www.etalabs.net/compare_libcs.html), so certain software might run into issues depending on the depth of their libc requirements. However, most software doesn't have an issue with this, so this variant is usually a very safe choice. +To minimize image size, it's uncommon for additional related tools to be included in Alpine-based images. Using this image as a base, add the things you need in your own Dockerfile. + ## `golang:onbuild` This image makes building derivative images easier. For most use cases, creating a `Dockerfile` in the base of your project directory with the line `FROM golang:onbuild` will be enough to create a stand-alone image for your project.
