👋 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!

Set environment variables for the development platform in the file secrets/my-app.development.

For production, use the secrets/my-app.production file.

Do not commit the secrets/my-app.production file to your Git repository! This file contains sensitive information and is ignored by default in the boilerplate's .gitignore to prevent accidental sharing.
