## Usage

This action uses our [setup-buildx](https://github.com/docker/setup-buildx-action) action that extends the
`docker build` command named [buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx) with the full support of the features
provided by [Moby BuildKit](https://github.com/moby/buildkit) builder toolkik. This includes multi-arch build,
build-secrets, remote cache, etc. and different builder deployment/namespacing options.
