[Copilot]

The Dockerfile uses a multi-stage build syntax (AS builder) but doesn't utilize multiple stages. Either implement a proper multi-stage build or remove the AS builder suffix to avoid confusion.

Suggested change

	FROM node:20-alpine AS builder
	FROM node:20-alpine

@Adez017 No, it helps the one who are not able to setup locally through npm they can go with this option and can spin-up dev server just by docker-compose up -d command.
