People use minimal OS images when they absolutely have to, but the ideal case is just your binary sitting there all alone. (Sometimes you need the tzdata files, SSL certificates, and other support files. But rarely a shell.)
- messe 5y agoI agree that the ideal case is just a single binary with minimal supporting data, but people using OS images is certainly the norm not the exception. To suggest otherwise is ludicrous.
