DockerDiet — Docker Image Optimizer

Paste your Dockerfile. Get an optimized one back in seconds.

DockerDiet — Docker Image Optimizer launched on May 12, 2026 with 2 votes, #6,288 of 20,538 launches that month.

What it does

Most Docker images are 3–10x larger than they need to be. DockerDiet is a free static analysis tool that takes your Dockerfile as input and gives you back: → An estimated image size breakdown by layer → A list of anti-patterns detected (with severity: critical / high / medium / low) → An automatically rewritten, optimized Dockerfile → Infrastructure cost implications (storage cost, pull time, CI/CD speed) → Side-by-side diff of original vs optimized

    For the past few months, I've been hacking around a project I call Dockershrink. It automates a simple task: Take a Dockerfile and optimize its code with the goal of reducing the size of the final Docker image. People don't realize that we can apply some very basic techniques to reduce, for eg, a 2GB image down to just ~100MB: - Multistage builds with light-weight base image for final stage - Remove unused dependencies - Optimizations specific to the tech stack And I feel like I've already done this optimization for my personal projects and backend apps at my job(s) a couple of times.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
