Create Docker container setup for development and production

[Kavignon]

What?

I want to implement Docker containerization for development and production environments to streamline development workflows and ensure consistent deployments. This setup will encapsulate the application and its dependencies, simplifying onboarding, testing, and deployment.

How?

Development Environment:

• Create a Dockerfile for development with tools and dependencies required for local development.
• Configure a docker-compose.yml file to set up multi-container workflows (e.g., app server, PostgreSQL).

Production Environment:

• Create a production-ready Dockerfile optimized for performance and security.

Application Configuration:

• Update environment variables and configurations to support Docker-based setups.
