I’m building apps for a portfolio. I’ve dabbled with heroku before and was always skeptical of their motivation, a convenient hosting solution to latch you in (when you can learn how to host on your own for low cost and high roi in regards of time and knowledge). I have a linode vps with a wordpress blog up but I want to learn docker and host my apps on there for 5 dollars a month.
