As the title says. Has anyone managed to create a scratch Docker container that can run Erlang/Elixir apps?

your boss sounds like they value vanity more than practicality
most bosses do
if you’re in a situation where you’re forced to do this because of “reasons,” my condolences. Just trace your way down the stack of dockerfiles from an existing “ready for prod” erlang/elixir image until you hit
scratch.This is not necessarily true. OP could have access to a private container registry and just recreate the aforementioned stack in private images.

Feel free to let me know if it works for you, the code is quite simple.
