The past few days I tried putting a personal project with Docker containers together consisting of nginx, certbot, static frontend files (built from source), backend web server. My goal was to be able to call docker-compose up. I’ve done a similar project before without Docker so I know what the end result should look like. Integrating the Docker containers with each other and getting the configurations right is a nightmare. Today I realized I can’t justify the time spent as “learning experience” anymore. What I did was premature optimization that failed terribly and cost me days.
