 ## Smaller images without npm/yarn
 
-If you want to achieve an even smaller image size than the `-alpine`, you can omit the npm/yarn like this:
+To remove npm and Yarn package managers, use a multi-stage build.
+In the first stage, the package manager builds the app.
+In the second stage, the `app` and the `node` directories are copied,
+without copying the npm & Yarn package managers.
+In Docker images based on Node.js >=26, Yarn is already removed.
+
+The result is a smaller and hardened final image with no package managers.
+
+The examples below build with npm.
