Docker Compose Generator
Build a complete docker-compose.yml for any stack in seconds — with health checks included
services:
app:
build: .
command: npm run start
ports:
- "3000:3000"
environment:
NODE_ENV: production
restart: unless-stopped
postgres:
image: postgres:16-alpine
environment:
POSTGRES_USER: app
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: change-me
POSTGRES_DB: app
volumes:
- pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data
ports:
- "5432:5432"
restart: unless-stopped
redis:
image: redis:7-alpine
ports:
- "6379:6379"
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:

Select your stack — backend language, database, cache, reverse proxy — and generate a working docker-compose.yml file with proper networking, volume mounts, environment variables, and health checks. Saves hours of Docker documentation reading.
What Docker Compose Does
Docker Compose defines and runs multi-container applications. Instead of running each container manually with docker run, you describe your entire stack in a YAML file and start everything with docker compose up.
Stacks This Generator Supports
Backends: Python (FastAPI, Django, Flask), Node.js, Go Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, SQLite Caches: Redis, Memcached Queues: RabbitMQ, Kafka Reverse proxies: Nginx, Traefik Monitoring: Prometheus + Grafana

Production Docker Considerations
Development Compose files work locally but production needs more thought: resource limits, secret management, logging drivers, and restart policies. For containerised deployments on VPS, ECS, or Fly.io, book a consultation.
