A Docker image is a blueprint of the applications, libraries, and software installed that can be instantiated as a container. We can “flatten” an image to reduce its size, number of constituent layers, and storage space, making it more lightweight.
Node Version Manager (NVM) is a tool for managing multiple Node.js versions on a machine. Of course, we can also Dockerize this process to isolate NVM’s installation.
