Building Multi-Platform Docker Images for Intel and ARM with AWS CodeBuild

The Docker BuildKit buildx CLI plugin simplifies building Docker images for different OS/CPU platforms (e.g. linux/amd64, linux/arm64, linux/arm, windows/amd64)

So why is it a big deal now? Who needs Docker images for Arm platform anyway. Raspberry Pi geeks?

A good reason for this is just a one word Graviton2…
