Infra / Tech stack snapshot
  • Reverse proxy: Traefik (file provider)
  • Dynamic routes: /traefik-dynamic/breast-builder-apps.yml
  • Preview host (recommended): https://test-app.beast-builder.marklo.de/
  • Networks: web + breast-builder-apps
  • Runtime template: static-nginx (static-nginx = nginx preview; fastapi/nextjs = docker image)
  • Codex runner: breast-builder-codex (UI triggers codex exec)
  • Workspace: /projects/test-app

A Dockerized, Traefik-proxied template app on a single VPS is a common baseline for validating providers, demoing deployments, and spinning up new projects quickly with predictable ops.

Why high demand
A Dockerized, Traefik-proxied template app on a single VPS is a common baseline for validating providers, demoing deployments, and spinning up new projects quickly with predictable ops.
Core features
  • Public landing page for Test App (demo)
  • Health/status endpoints and basic uptime page
  • Simple CRUD demo entity (e.g., Notes) with validation
  • Admin login + protected admin page
  • Deployment-ready Docker Compose stack behind Traefik
MVP scope
  • One responsive web UI with a single protected admin route
  • REST API with CRUD for one model + pagination
  • PostgreSQL persistence with migrations
  • Session-based auth for admin user (single role)
  • Basic logs and metrics endpoint; simple error reporting
Step-by-step plan
  1. Define domains/subdomains and DNS records (app, api, traefik/dashboard if needed)
  2. Create repo structure: /frontend /backend /infra with docker-compose.yml and Traefik dynamic config
  3. Implement backend service: CRUD, migrations, health endpoints, admin auth
  4. Implement frontend: landing + admin login + CRUD UI (minimal styling)
  5. Wire Traefik routes/middlewares: HTTPS via ACME, gzip, security headers, rate limit (basic)
  6. Add observability: structured logs, basic metrics, error capture; confirm container log rotation
  7. Add backup job: nightly pg_dump to local + optional offsite (S3-compatible) and restore test
  8. CI/CD: build and deploy via SSH (or GitHub Actions) pulling repo and running compose up -d
  9. Load test lightly (wrk/k6) and tune: DB connections, request limits, container resources
  10. Document runbook: deploy, rollback, backups, restore, renew certs, rotate secrets
Possible risks
  • Under-provisioned VPS leading to OOM/restarts during builds or peak traffic
  • Misconfigured Traefik routing/TLS causing downtime or redirect loops
  • Database backups not tested or not automated
  • Secrets leakage via env files, logs, or Git history
  • Single-server blast radius: no HA; upgrades can cause outages
Tech stack
KeyValue
frontendReact + Vite (served by Nginx container) or simple server-side templates if preferred
backendNode.js (Express) with TypeScript
dbPostgreSQL 16
authCookie-based sessions (express-session) + bcrypt; single admin user in DB
storageLocal volume for uploads (optional) with clear size limits; consider S3-compatible later
queueNone for MVP; use in-process cron for simple jobs (backups handled outside app)
observabilityDocker logs (json-file) + Traefik access logs + optional Prometheus node exporter
Infra notes
  • Single VPS with Docker Engine + Docker Compose; pin image versions and use restart: unless-stopped
  • Traefik as edge router with ACME TLS; only expose 80/443; keep DB internal network-only
  • Use .env for secrets on server only; never commit; rotate admin password and session secret
  • Persistent volumes: postgres data, app uploads (if any), Traefik acme.json; set correct permissions
  • Backups: schedule via host cron or lightweight backup container; verify restores monthly
  • Resource limits: set memory limits per container to prevent host OOM; enable swap only if necessary
  • Security: automatic OS updates, firewall (ufw), disable password SSH, fail2ban optional
Questions
  • Do you need a custom domain and HTTPS, or is provider IP access sufficient for the demo?
  • Should this be a pure API + static frontend, or server-rendered pages to reduce complexity?
  • Is persistence required for the demo, or can the CRUD be ephemeral/in-memory?
  • Do you need multi-user auth or only a single admin account?
  • Any requirement to support file uploads or background jobs in the MVP?
