# Dokploy Self-Hosted Application Deployment Platform

Deploy and manage Dockerized apps on your own infrastructure with Dokploy, an open source platform positioned as an alternative to Heroku, Vercel, and Netlify. This skill is useful when agents need to stand up services, manage compose stacks, provision databases, and reason about Traefik-backed deployment workflows from real Dokploy docs and project conventions.

## Prerequisites

Docker, Docker Swarm, Traefik, Linux VPS

## Installation

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- **Applications**: Deploy any type of application (Node.js, PHP, Python, Go, Ruby, etc.).
- **Docker Compose**: Native support for Docker Compose to manage complex applications.
- **Multi Node**: Scale applications to multiple nodes using Docker Swarm to manage the cluster.

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- **Real-time Monitoring**: Monitor CPU, memory, storage, and network usage for every resource.
- ## 🚀 Getting Started
