I feel like this could be containerized fairly easily?


for what benefit?


If you are hosting a bunch of services in Docker already it's easier to just add another image than doing something custom that you have to update in another way then the rest.


> doing something custom

I hear that all the time.

What services do you think of when thinking about static sites and a dash script?

Sounds to me like adding complexity just because everybody does it. Cargo cult.


It’s not about adding complexity, it’s fitting it alongside all the other services you might run.

If every service, complex or as simple as a static site can be updated, stopped or having a backup done in the same way it makes things easier. Even if this very service wouldn’t necessarily need the complexity.
