Example-1: Create Example Docker Compose #26

Description

Docker is great, but Docker Compose makes it even easier to run multi-container setups. Right now, users have to figure out Docker Compose themselves if they want to combine this with other services.

What we're trying to accomplish: Provide a ready-to-use Docker Compose example that shows how to run the proxy with other services, manage environment variables, and set up volumes/networks properly.

The task: Create examples/docker-compose.yml showing:

  • Multi-container setup (the proxy + other services)
  • Environment variable management
  • Volume mounts for config files
  • Network configuration

Make it a realistic example that users can copy and adapt. Then document it in docs/deployment.md.

Why this matters: Docker Compose is the standard way to run multi-container apps. Providing an example removes guesswork and helps users get started faster.

Skills needed: Beginner-friendly - mostly YAML configuration and understanding Docker Compose basics.

Time estimate: 1-2 hours

Helpful files:

  • docs/deployment.md - Deployment documentation
  • Dockerfile - Understand the Docker setup
