• ✅ corepack enabled with latest pnpm
• ✅ Global pm2
• ✅ Headless Chromium pre-installed (for Puppeteer, scraping, PDF, etc.)
• ✅ Cleaned and slimmed image layers
• ✅ Multi-arch: linux/amd64 & linux/arm64 (Mac M1, EC2 Graviton ready)

• Uses pnpm for dependency management
• Uses pm2 for clustering or daemon mode
• Uses puppeteer with headless Chromium for:
  • PDF generation
  • Crawling/scraping
  • SSR (e.g., Next.js)
• Needs a lightweight, production-ready Node environment
