I am using nx, nestjs, nixpacks as a builder, and there is no Dockerfile in the project. Is there any idea or way to reduce docker image? like multi-stage docker build? https://docs.docker.com/build/building/multi-stage/
Without making a custom Dockerfile, just by the configuration of railway or nixpacks.

Absolutely, https://nixpacks.com/docs/configuration/file#start-phase
you can set the run image and then specify only the files you want to copy into it for a multi-stage build.
here's an example of this for a frontend Vue app.
