My Docker images for Node.js apps are getting quite large. What are some strategies to reduce image size while maintaining functionality?
Great question! You can use the Array.map() method to transform each element. Here's a simple example: const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; const doubled = numbers.map(num => num * 2); console.log(doubled); // [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] The map() method creates a new array by applying a function to every element in the original array.

Another approach would be using forEach() if you need to perform side effects: const numbers = [1, 2, 3]; numbers.forEach(num => { console.log(num * 2); }); But remember, forEach() doesn't return a new array, while map() does. So choose based on your use case.
