Weird text was already deemed acceptable by microsoft in their documentation as they machine translated most screenshots instead of recreating them in different locales, leading to the same problems as this image.
It should in an ideal world but docker is a very leaky abstraction imho and you will run into a number of problems.
It has improved as of newer kernel and docker versions but they were problems (overlayfs/zfs incompatibilities/ uid mapping problems in docker images/ capabilities requested by docker not available in LXC, rootless docker problems,...)
I've mistakenly deleted from our mail quarantine multiple times as spam/phishing.
Imho it's wilful négligence toynkeep such a system operating in 2025.
I have (re)installed it recently and I can't find the apps backup. The only backup that seems to run in settings is the coolify instance backup.
Moreover I don't see a way to restore a coolify hosted app from the gui (couldn't find one in the doc too).
The documentation around traefik and caddy is lackink a bit. It seems they want you to expose the coolify server directly on the internet. I prefer to host my services behind a cloudflare tunnel and it was a bit janky to setup.
It's low maintenance and stable and certainly has come a long way since I tried it about 2 years ago but there is still many improvements to make.
The simplest way imho would be to use Windows configuration designer.
It generates a file that automate windows oobe when put on a USB key connected to the pc during setup.
How do you handle backups ?
I recently setup coolify and installed the included WordPress. WordPress was broken by a failed module install, I wanted to restore a backup and didn't find a way to backup only one service/stack.
Compared to simply docker compose isolated in a vm/lxc container it was not a particularly better experience.
I also wanted to use cloudflare tunnels instead of exposing the server on the internet and it seems coolify really prefers to work directly on the internet (lacking reverse proxy doc, ...)
Afaik they do but only for low system ressource usage.
Anecdotally I had my test free instance culled years ago. But later I deployed a minecraft server (higher baseline ram+cpu use than a web server or small app) and they never culled it (3+ years uptime until a friend reminded me of the server and I updated/restarted it)
It's quite long (I think 7h in it's restored version) but it's a masterpiece with many innovative techniques and huge budget for the time.
I don't know how you can watch it legally unfortunately but it was aired in France on TV at the end of summer early september iirc and released in some theather (in 2 parts) this summer.
IMHO it's not as NUC style mini PCs with x86-64 CPUs from AMD and intel are really cheap and the 256Gb storage is way too small making the "real" price $200 higher for any sort of moderate usage.
You should check out this project (https://kyber.media/) by the man behind VLC and ex CTO of a cloud streaming (JB Kempf). It also uses QUIC for transport and VLC/ffmpeg for fast encoding. Unfortunately it's not launched yet AFAIK.
