When using Docker for build environments, provide complete, tested instructions that users can copy-paste without modification. Include proper user permission handling to prevent file ownership issues, and ensure commands work as documented.

For example, instead of generic placeholders:
# DON'T
docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD:/code/" -u $(id -u):$(id -g) maplibre-native-image ___any_build_command___
Provide specific working examples:
# DO
docker build \
-t maplibre-native-image \
--build-arg USER_ID=$(id -u) \
--build-arg GROUP_ID=$(id -g) \
-f platform/linux/Dockerfile \
platform/linux
# Run all build commands using the docker container
docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD:/code/" maplibre-native-image
This ensures reproducible builds across different developer environments and CI/CD pipelines, reduces setup time, and prevents “works on my machine” issues.
