A collection of official and community-contributed Docker builder images (e.g., docker, gcloud, kubectl, go, npm) used as build steps in Google Cloud Build CI/CD pipelines. Images are pre-built and published to gcr.io/cloud-builders, with source and example cloudbuild.yaml configs included.

Use cases

• run docker builds in google cloud build
• deploy to gke from cloud build pipeline
• build go project with cloud build
• run kubectl commands in ci pipeline
• push images to artifact registry from cloud build
• find community builder images for cloud build

When to choose

• you use Google Cloud Build and need ready-made build step images
• you want Google-maintained images for common tools like docker, git, gcloud, or kubectl
• you need gke-deploy best-practice deployments from CI

When to avoid

• you use another CI system like GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
• you need self-hosted builds outside Google Cloud
• you need multi-version or multi-platform images, which community alternatives often provide better
