The primary source of truth for Docker's Official Images program, containing library definition files, review guidelines, and the Bashbrew tooling used to build and publish curated Docker Hub images. It governs a set of vetted, multi-architecture container images rebuilt for security updates.

Use cases

  • find trusted base images for dockerfiles
  • propose a new official docker image for my project
  • understand dockerfile best practices from curated examples
  • check which architectures an official image supports
  • build and verify official image tags with bashbrew
  • get security updates for standard container images

When to choose

  • you need trustworthy, actively maintained base images on Docker Hub
  • you want to contribute or maintain an Official Image
  • you need reference Dockerfiles exemplifying best practices

When to avoid

  • you need application-specific or niche images outside the curated library
  • you want a general container build tool rather than image definitions
  • you need private or custom image publishing workflows
