Buildpacks – What’s That, and How Does It Work?
summary
Buildpacks convert source to container images by running a lifecycle inside a builder image and the demo shows concrete tools and results: the Spring Boot Maven plugin invokes a builder that detects six buildpacks, runs detect, restore, build, export and rebase phases, and produces a runnable image. A manual pack CLI build mirrors that. A custom jdk and app buildpack are implemented with detect/build scripts, layers and a cache so the second build reuses the JDK layer, producing a working container.
