This Container image (yobasystems/alpine-docker) is based on the minimal Alpine Linux with Docker pre-installed, or even better Docker-in-Docker (dind).

Alpine Linux is a Linux distribution built around musl libc and BusyBox. The image is only 5 MB in size and has access to a package repository that is much more complete than other BusyBox based images. This makes Alpine Linux a great image base for utilities and even production applications. Read more about Alpine Linux here and you can see how their mantra fits in right at home with Container images.
Although running Docker inside Docker is generally not recommended, there are some legitimate use cases, such as development of Docker itself.
Docker is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers, by providing an additional layer of abstraction and automation of operating-system-level virtualisation on Linux, Mac OS and Windows.
- Minimal size only, minimal layers
- Memory usage is minimal on a simple install.

Use like you would any other base image:
FROM yobasystems/alpine-docker
RUN apk add --no-cache ......
.........
.......
....
..
.
or maybe a docker run command:
docker run -it --name=dind --privileged -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock yobasystems/alpine-docker:dind /bin/sh
or if you want to use a docker-compose.yml:
version: '3.9'
services:
alpine-docker:
image: yobasystems/alpine-docker:dind
container_name: alpine-docker
privileged: true
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
Simply create a docker-compose.yml file with the above content and run docker-compose up -d to start the container.
