==========
This purpose of the Dockerfile is to define how to build the image for the service. It declares the environment and building stages.
The Dockerfile is responsible for mounting the service application to whatever volume the manifest specifies, typically ``/root``.
The Dockerfile is responsible for mounting the service application to whatever volume the manifest specifies, typically ``/root/.<service-id>``.
Since the build requires specific arm runtime environments, these base images can be imported into the Dockerfile as a starting point so the base system does not need to be completely redefined. This enables importing a specific build environment version that encapsulates any necessary libraries for running the service build, eg. golang, rust.
