My actual professional advice: cut portainer out of your learning. Stick to compose as your only docker abstraction and you’ll be a wizard in no time. I have portainer running in my sea of self hosted apps and never use it. If you let some app generate compose files for you, or even just blindly use an app’s example compose file, you’ll never fully understand what’s happening and it’ll make things much more difficult to debug.

4: yes, every container will show up in portainer. 5: I don’t know 6: this is one of the reasons why I personally hate piling layers onto tools. Very often someone else’s opinion does not jive with mine.

When I worked retail, I never asked for phone or address or anything. If they volunteered it, I’d do it, but I never asked. Management talked to me about it several times and I just kept not doing it. I think they kept me on in busy times because I could blast through any line of customers faster than anyone else (I wonder why 🤔)
