    I tried to self host using the docs and docker.

    Normally I would check out source, build and deploy, but the docs suggest an entirely manual deployment or build/deploy via docker compose.

    The issue I hit was figuring out what had failed in the process, I would have preferred a CI guide to produce working docker images and a CD guide for deploying the docker images.

    The reason I gave up is there aren’t any release markers, I tried with develop and main and couldn’t figure out if it was me or the branches weren’t in a buildable state.

    I don’t expect the a release to be perfect just an indicator that a working product was created at this point.
