This simply downloads a 65MB binary executable "motor-admin-Linux-x86_64" from GitHub and does not build from the code given in the repo. There's no visibility into what the binary actually contains or how to build it on my own.

Oh got it, here is a Docker file to build rails app from source without downloading binary:

https://github.com/motor-admin/motor-admin/blob/08ba1e4e339a...

Will add it back to the repository in case others need it too.

Great. BTW how were you planning on updating the binaries of your project without this file?

Binaries are build with https://github.com/motor-admin/ruby-packer - they do not require docker - this repo contains all instructions in order to pack a binary.
