    Learn Docker even if you have a single app. I do the same with a Minecraft server.

    • No dependency issues
    • All configuration (storage/network/application management) can be done via a single file (compose file)
    • Easy roll-backs possible
    • Maintain multiple versions of the app while keeping them separate
    • Recreate the server on a different server/machine using only the single configuration file
    • Config is standardized so easy to read

    You will save a huge amount of time managing your app.

    PS: I would like to give a shout out to podman as the rootless version of Docker
