After build (npm build) doesn't run npm start in Docker container?

Question

Docker

I set up deployment of a nuxt application using Docker according to this article .
After the call

docker run -p 80:80 --rm --name app-container app-image

throws an error:

Error: No build files found in /usr/src/nuxt-app/.nuxt/dist/server. ││ Use either `nuxt build` or `builder.build()` or start nuxt in ││ development mode.

P.S. on stackoverflow they write that you need to remove the volumes section. How and where to remove it? I don't use composite

The article is old and uses node 11 version, which is no longer supported by nuxt.js. Use version 16.5.0 by changing the first line of the Dockerfile to "FROM node:16.5.0-alpine".
