alexejk/java8 repository overview

⁠Minified Docker image for Java 8

Basic Docker⁠ image to run Java 8⁠ applications.

Based on minimalistic AlpineLinux⁠ to keep the size down.

⁠Java Versions

Unlike many other images, this one currently targets only Java8 Server JRE with Unlimited JCE Policy. It is possible that there will be dual-versions later (with and wihout Unlimited JCE Policy) but this is currently not planned.

⁠How the size is kept down

Besides basing on-top of AlpineLinux which already is very small, as part of the build process bulky/heavy parts of Server JRE are removed. This includes fonts, JavaFX, command-line tools and other small things.
