<![CDATA[Docs clarification base image]]>In https://docs.cloudron.io/packaging/cheat-sheet, there is this comment :

Do not put PHP, Node, or pip/venv back into cloudron/base.

It reads strangely to me, almost a note for cloudron base image builders, rather than for app packagers. Maybe the emphasis is intended to be "into cloudron/base".

Packagers using this "slim" package will likely need to add some language components.

Can this document content be clarified ?

Out of interest, I tested the main base image variants with a 'hello world' page :

cloudron-base6:0.0.1 size: 1.19GB
cloudron/node-base:24-20260920 size: 1.46GB
cloudron/python-base:3.14-20260920 size: 1.26GB
cloudron/php-base:8.5-20260920 size: 1.54GB
