Introduction

Architecture

Docker

We use docker to develop and test our application. Because it is really easy!
Prerequisites
Before going any further make sure that you have docker installed on your machine. It comes for Mac, Linux, and Windows.
Minimal versions:
docker: 18.02
docker-compose: 1.20
Developing
To start your development environment just run:
docker-compose up
That's it. You will see that your development server is up and running.
Testing
To test your application run:
docker-compose run --rm vue npm run test
Production
We use GitLab CI to build production ready docker images.
However, we do not 100% recommend to use docker for production in this case. Because you need to answer some questions before doing it:
1.Are some raw static files just fine for me? If so, just use npm run generate
2.Do I really need all the complexity that comes with docker? If not, use npm run start
3.Can I deploy my application to some 3rd-party services? Like: now.sh, gh-pages, heroku or so on. If so, do not hesitate to do it
4.Do I really need to scale my server-side rendering? If not, use npm run start
All in all: if you have some complex private frontend with server-side rendering and complex infrastructure, then you might need docker.
