I've always wondered if I was using containers wrong because none of them I've ever had to create were complicated. Maybe it's because I choose tools that make local development easy (Go + sqlite + various CLTs) or maybe it's because I never hard to interact with this on the professional side outside of making images for our projects (which still weren't complicated for the reasons above). LLMs make containers in a pretty workable format for me (still hand tweak the env variables for a sanity check). How exactly does it struggle here and why does postgres need to be built? Were the needs beyond what you get in a base image?

  This is definitely beyond my capabilities lol but wow portr is a neat project. Never heard of it before, only the paid services from tailscale/cloudflare.

  I've been using DS4F+Pi with great results, but I think one thing that helps is at the end of my prompt I'll tell it how to verify it, e.g. "Make sure the compose file works by running it locally (use self-signed certs if required)". The argument could be made that "the model should be smart enough to figure it out" , and maybe DS4 isn't. But with just a bit of steering you can get the correct result for like 1/10th the cost, or even cheaper.
