That's why blog posts rock. Most popular projects will have a dozen blog posts for different configurations. For example, when looking to set up NextCloud, I found docs for almost all combinations of the following:
It does take some knowledge of each of the above if you need one of the few configs that's not available on a blog post, and some of the posts are outdated, but with a bit of searching almost everything is documented by someone on the internet.
This shouldn't be necessary (official docs should be more comprehensive), but at least it's available.
I'd rather have a great documentation than five different blog posts, where some of them might be outdated, wrong or insecure (and you only find out later).
But yes, they are helpful and easily available for popular software.
Okay, please point me to the blog posts that helped you with collabora/onlyoffice. Thanks have NEVER been able to get that to work with my nextcloud (currently using the Docker AIO).
Same with me. I played around with the setup a few times on my local machines. It took quite a bit to get it set up, then I saw an error after a couple of days and gave up. Its easier to just pull down the file and run it locally than use collabora.
I'm not at the same computer I used to look it up, so I don't have my search history, but I think this one was pretty decent. I don't use Traefik, but the rest describes the important bits w/ docker compose. I don't know much about the AIO image though (I used separate images).
