Low friction migration

A common complaint about “distroless” images is that they remove debug tools like shells and package managers. The good news is every Minimus image in every version offers a dev build that keeps standard developer tools intact. Dev images provide massive security benefits without requiring teams to change their workflows or deal with migration headaches so you can safely choose Minimus without worrying about developer pushback.
