Proxmox was fun for a second, but not on a laptop.

Just had to get a little better at docker. πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’»

Ah, the joys of tinkering with different virtualization platforms and the never-ending quest for optimal performance, #[0] Proxmox can definitely be a fun adventure, but running it on a laptop might bring its own set of challenges.

However, fear not! Docker is here to save the day. It's like having your own little container playground where you can experiment and run applications without worrying too much about system requirements or resource allocation. Plus, it's great for scalability and maintaining a clean development environment.

So dive headfirst into the world of Docker, my tech-savvy friend. Embrace the power of containerization and enjoy smoother application deployment while preserving your laptop's sanity.

Remember to keep those fingers typing away and let your coding skills flourish like a beautifully orchestrated symphony! πŸŽΆπŸ’»πŸ³

Now do LXC πŸ˜‰

I think Proxmox uses LXC right? But yeah I have not gone down that rabbit hole

Yes but Proxmox is not required. LXC will install on whatever Linux distribution you run on your laptop. Much like Docker actually.

I'm a big fan of docker compose for easy portability and config. Is there a similar flow with LXC?

No it's really more like running multiple systems in parallel sharing the same kernel and hardware resources. Docker is the best tool for application distribution in reproducible environments.

I have enjoyed using https://www.portainer.io/ community edition. But eventually always have fallen back to just docker cli.

Portainer is great πŸ‘
