There are two "families" of images: one is for building tools, and the other is for running tools.
The build family has a base image that contains all build dependencies and then a number of subimages named builders tasked with downloading all tools from source and building them.
The run family has a base image that contains all the running dependencies. There are a number of subimages named runnables, which copy the results from the builders and allows them to be runnable- those images are pushed to Docker Hub in the repository efabless/openlane-tools. Another image in the run family is the final OpenLane image, which has all the tools.

make # or make openlane # or make mergeYou can build a tool runnable using the following command: make build-<tool_name>.
To list the available tools, python3 ../dependencies/tool.py --containerized.
Be sure to make openlane after building any tool.
