I see docker-compose.prod.yml -- but I was under the impression that nobody used docker-compose in production, and I vaguely remember that it was even discouraged by Docker. Is that what docker-compose is used for now? Am I misremembering? (I've never used docker-compose in any serious manner.)
Plenty of people use docker compose in production. If what you are standing up works fine on a single machine it works really great, if you need something that runs in a more distributed manner, there are tools for converting a docker compose file to a set of kubernetes manifests. Docker compose also has some really nice features around using .env files so it’s easy to test/develop locally and deploy as a 12 factor app.
This is very cool, my TL;DR from a quick read of their GitHub code:
- Frontend and backend are both in Typescript / NodeJS
- Backend uses Knex for DB ORM (good choice, it's one of the most popular NodeJS ORMs)
- Supports VSCode, Husky and Docker out of the box
- Seems to have plenty of tests everywhere, always a good sign.
- AGPL license so anyone using this would have to contribute back to the community
