This exactly. Docker provides a way to deploy but also to self-document and version control the deployment process, and having the Dockerfile from the starts brings a lot of value. Without this, deployment starts being spread over various bash files with often poor documentation (they’re already mentioning such a script in their article). Then when it becomes too messy, time to write that Dockerfile I guess, except now it’s more complicated than if it had been done from the start.
