From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So you're building your own images? I'm sure there's a way to build, transfer, and run an image. But you might just set up a local registry. Or just throw them up on a free registry like GitHub.
My development machine is an AMD64 and the Pi is an Aarch64... I have no clue how complicated cross-building images for a different architecture is?!? (I am thinking about using something like Erlang/Elixir, so I honestly don't know at all.)
I am not totally opposed to use a registry (free or payed), but, correct me if I am wrong: If I just build the image on the Pi, it is already exactly at the one spot where I need it, so what problem is solved for me by using a registry?
Edit: Someone above mentioned docker buildx, so seems cross compilation is solved.
