+| CPU | 2 cores |
+| RAM | 2GB (4GB recommended for building) |
+| Disk | 5GB |
+
+> **Note:** Building the Docker image requires significant memory for the frontend compilation step. If you're running on a memory-constrained system (like Oracle Cloud Free Tier), consider using a pre-built image or building on a machine with more RAM.
