+# Using the image outside of Nais
+
+When using the [nais/docker-build-push](https://github.com/nais/docker-build-push) action, the image is pushed to a registry that is meant for use within the Nais platform.
+If you need to use the image outside of Nais, e.g. locally in a development environment, you should push the image to another registry.
+
+## Push to GitHub Container Registry
+
+After the image is built by `nais/docker-build-push`, you can push it to the GitHub Container Registry (GHCR) by adding the following step to your workflow:
+
+- `packages: write` permission is required to push images to the GHCR.
+- Step to retag the image after it has been built.
+
+```yaml hl_lines="13 21-26"

+on:
+  push:
+    branches:
+      - main
+jobs:
+  build_and_deploy:

+          echo "${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}" | docker login ghcr.io -u ${{ github.actor }} --password-stdin
+          # Tag the image, e.g. ghcr.io/owner/repo:latest
+          docker buildx imagetools create -t ghcr.io/${{ github.repository }}:latest ${{ steps.docker-build-push.outputs.image }}
+      - name: Deploy to Nais

+          CLUSTER: <MY-CLUSTER> # Replace (1)
+          RESOURCE: .nais/app.yaml #, topic.yaml, statefulset.yaml, etc.
+          VAR: image=${{ steps.docker-build-push.outputs.image }}
+          TELEMETRY: ${{ steps.docker-build-push.outputs.telemetry }}
+```
+
+## Even more control
+
+If you need more control of how the image is built, e.g. supporting more platforms etc, you can use the [nais/login action](https://github.com/nais/login) to log in to the registry
+provided by Nais, and build the image using e.g. [docker/build-push-action](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action).
+You can also use the [nais/attest-sign](https://github.com/nais/attest-sign) action to sign the image before pushing it to the registry.
+
+See the [nais/docker-build-push action file](https://github.com/nais/docker-build-push/blob/main/action.yml) for a complete example.
