Hi HN! My name is Lio. I'm the author of the article and CTO of Defang: a CLI tool to deploy Docker Compose projects to the cloud(s). This story on how I deployed a website just to transfer a file got many chuckles in my friend circle and it was suggested I blog about it, so here it is. Yes, it's ridiculous, but it got the job done, and hopefully you'll enjoy the story, and perhaps the tool, too. AMA |
Makes me want to set up a burner GitHub account for this kind of thing. Just pull a tar, follow some prompts and let it rip.
I might actually find this useful some time. Thanks lionello
1. What kind of projects can you generate using Defang? What languages are 2. What if my project needs a database or queues - can I deploy that using Defang?
2. You can add database or redis to your compose file. During deployment, defang has the option to map those to the respective managed versions, if the target cloud provider had that option.
