Frequently Asked Questions
What Docker Compose version does this generate?
The tool generates Docker Compose files compatible with version 3.8, which is widely supported by modern Docker installations.
Can I customize the generated services?
Yes. After adding a service, you can modify its port mappings and environment variables directly in the service configuration cards.
Can I add multiple instances of the same service?
Yes. If you click a service multiple times (like Redis or PostgreSQL), the generator will automatically append a numeric suffix to ensure service names remain unique within the compose file.
Where does the YAML generation happen?
The entire docker-compose.yml file is assembled directly in your web browser. No backend API is used to generate or store your infrastructure configuration.
How do I configure persistent volumes?
The default service templates come with standard volume mappings pre-configured. You can edit the volume fields in the UI to map them to your host machine or specific Docker named volumes.
