I've been using dokku[0] for a while now and love how easy it is to just push random stuff up to a new subdomain. The other day I pushed up a doxygen html of an code base I was working with. I have my blog, portfolio site, random apps I use for myself, a cloud storage app etc.

It is definitely one more tool to learn, but it is pretty much a light wrapper around docker so it ended up being a great gradual introduction to the concepts and configurations of working with docker as well.

Be sure to install either the persistent storage[1] plugin or the docker options plugin[2] so that your apps can just use the file system on the server to make things a lot simpler.

Thanks! I'm checking it out now.
