If you want to see Tilt in action, our Chroma open-source repo uses it to run the distributed version of the database for development and ci. It's pretty cool - just clone then run `tilt up` and it's working:

Thank you for sharing this! I think your Tiltfile just showed me how to solve something that's been bugging me for a while!

I see that you also have docker-compose files -- are those for different tasks or for developer preference?

I'm also curious to understand why you have different build scripts for CI (`buildx`) vs local (regular docker build)? In our team, we use the same build processes for both.
