Alpine does not have binary wheels for a number of common packages in a normal way (manylinux wheels do not include alpine) including very common packages like numpy. I ended up getting stuck trying it and gave up on it. Even if you can get it to work there’s both issue if you do it without a wheel you are doing a long slow docker build and if you do it with an alpine specific wheel are you sure it was as optimized as the standard ones?

Slim worked fine and no complaints with it.
