Buildpacks look cool, but Dokku is perfect for single-server projects with its plugin system. It has one-command setup for Postgres and Redis, auto-backups to S3, built-in nginx reverse proxying, and an easy Let's Encrypt plugin. My current server has an uptime of 1,912 days (~5.3 years) with near 100% app availability. With reliability like that, I plan to stick with Dokku when I upgrade to a new server next month. For multi-server setups, Buildpacks with orchestration tools probably make more sense though.
