Please make arm64, amd64 docker containers for Baatchit, this would make it very easy to deploy

Coming to arm64 and amd64 docker containers are they like some kind of images? As i don't know much about them but will do my research and fulfill this issue for sure :)

yes they are images that are configured for this software called Docker that lets people deploy the app with one command. The image itself has different layers of software that are needed to run the app like npm etc. Thank you for looking into it!

arm64 and amd64 are different CPU architectures. amd64 CPU architecture is used by most laptops and most hefty servers while arm64 is a comparatively new CPU architecture used by smartphones and some lower powered servers and laptops.

People who own amr64 would not be able to use arm64 based docker images and vice versa.
