I tried out Dagger hoping to tidy up some of our CI pipelines. I really wasn’t impressed to be honest. I initially just wanted to build a basic Docker image using BuildKit and even that was nightmare that the Dagger guys basically told me just isn’t supported.
Very recently. It may run on BuildKit but it doesn't expose it as a build runtime. IIRC Dagger implements its own way of building images that lacks BuildKit features and doesn't work with Dockerfiles.

When was this; dagger runs on top of buildkit?
