How-to guides

These guides accompany you through crafting, chiselling, and publishing rocks with Rockcraft.

Crafting

The starting point of a rock is a Rockcraft project, which defines what goes into the rock and what machinery builds it. Once a project is complete, the rock can be packed either locally or remotely, and then published to an image registry.

Chiselling

Containers often contain redundant or unneeded software in their baseline systems. Chisel cuts software collections into manageable slices that can layered within rocks to make them leaner.
