Dive: A tool for exploring a Docker image, layer contents and more

Dive is a tool designed for exploring Docker images and finding ways to reduce their size. By running dive with an image tag or ID, users can analyze the contents of the image and see how different layers contribute to its overall size. The tool also highlights any changes that have been made in each layer and provides an estimation of the image’s efficiency and wasted space. Dive supports quick build and analysis cycles, allowing for immediate analysis of Docker images. It can be integrated into CI pipelines to ensure minimal wasted space. Additionally, Dive supports multiple image sources and container engines. Installation instructions are provided for various operating systems and environments. Overall, Dive is a powerful tool for optimizing Docker/OCI images.
