@vince-fugnitto We add the build-essential in the documentation, but what about the apps, it is set for some docker images but not all, Do you know why?
If we have it for theia-full-docker, why it is not set for theia-docker or theia-go-docker ?

@lmcbout they might be using different base images which already handle build-essential.
Is it blocking this pull-request?

For example, theia-docker is using a base node-alpine image (not debian) so build-essential is not available AFAIK.

Good catch - it's easy to miss this one because most people that use Ubuntu for any development will already have it. We should still document it, of course.
