This approach is akin to installing all of the build tooling inside of Docker, then generating the build artifact. I'd think it'd be even slimmer to generate the build artifact first, then just copy that into the container. Is t

Not the OP, but what I commonly see are elaborate behaviors by devs to try and avoid dealing with specificity head-on, because it’s so hard to reason about. In my opinion this leads to CSS that is two to three times longer than strictly nec
