Research direction

Start with the repository's Dockerfile and reproduce the reported build failure involving fnichol/uhttpd. Compare the current image setup with the provided nginx:alpine example, then verify that the chosen Dockerfile builds successfully without requiring the older BuildKit.

Description

image

The uhhtpd from fnichol is outdated and docker won't build it unless i tell it to use the older buildkit

I would suggest to do it with nginx:alpine, I tried it with that and it works fine

This is Dockerfile i used:

FROM nginx:alpine

COPY . /usr/share/nginx/html
