FAQ

How do I use the generated compose file?

Save it as docker-compose.yml and run docker compose up -d in the same directory to start all services in the background; docker compose ps shows status, docker compose down stops them.

How should I handle passwords and other secrets?

The change-me values in the template are placeholders — replace them with strong passwords, or reference them from a .env file via environment variables, so secrets are not committed to the repo in plain text.
