Bake is a tool that manages docker build configurations, that are easily referenced e.g: `docker buildx bake <target>`.

It uses a config file: `docker-bake.hcl`. With it you can specify multiple targets and their build switches (as one would pass directly to docker build):

```docker-bake.hcl
target "test" {
  dockerfile = "docker/test.Dockerfile"
}

target "debian" {
  dockerfile = "docker/debian.Dockerfile"
}

target "ci" {
  dockerfile = "docker/ci.Dockerfile"
}
```
