👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero offers a ready-to-use Docker cloud CaaS (Containers as a Service) solution that provides a host of benefits, including:

  • Easily deploy your containers to production with just a docker-compose up.
  • Customizable domain name secured with HTTPS (for example, https://api.your-company.com, https://www.your-company.com, https://backoffice.your-company.com).
  • Optimal performance and robust security powered by a private and dedicated VM.
  • Effortless updates with just a click.

Save time and simplify your life: it only takes 5 minutes to try Stackhero's Docker CaaS cloud hosting solution and deploy your containers to production!

It is a good idea to protect the production and staging branches to avoid direct pushes. With branch protection enabled, changes are introduced via pull requests, which must be reviewed and merged by someone with the right permissions. This means features are first validated on the staging platform, then promoted to production only after approval.

By following this workflow, you help ensure both security (so only authorized team members can deploy to staging and production) and reliability (by testing new features on a staging platform before deploying to production).
