+This `Dockerfile` does the following tasks:
+
+1. Builds the Actor from the `apify/actor-node:20` base image.
+
+    ```dockerfile
+    FROM apify/actor-node:20
+    ```
+
+2. Copies the `package.json` and `package-lock.json` files to the image.
+
+    ```dockerfile
+    COPY package*.json ./
+    ```
+
+3. Installs the npm packages specified in package.json, omitting development and optional dependencies.
+
+    ```dockerfile
+    RUN npm --quiet set progress=false \
+        && npm install --omit=dev --omit=optional \
+        && echo "Installed NPM packages:" \

+        && echo "NPM version:" \
+        && npm --version \
+        && rm -r ~/.npm

+
+4. Copies the rest of the source code to the image
+
+    ```dockerfile

+
+:::note Optimized build cache
+
+By copying the `package.json` and `package-lock.json` files and installing dependencies before the rest of the source code, you can take advantage of Docker's caching mechanism. This approach ensures that dependencies are only reinstalled when the `package.json` or `package-lock.json` files change, significantly reducing build times. Since the installation of dependencies is often the most time-consuming part of the build process, this optimization can lead to substantial performance improvements, especially for larger projects with many dependencies.

This way, we can take advantage of Docker's caching mechanism and only install the dependencies when the `package.json` or `package-lock.json` files change. This way, the build process is much faster.
