Should I be learning docker compose instead of relying on dockStarter to manage my containers? I got portainer up, should I just use that to manage my stack?

I’m committed this summer to finally learning docker. I’m on day 3 and the last puzzle piece is being able to access qbittorrent locally while running the container through the vpn.

    I’ve not used dockge so it may be great but at least for this case portainer puts all the stack (docker-compose) files on disk. It’s very easy to grab them if the app is unavailable.

    I use a single Portainer service to manage 5 servers, 3 local and 2 VPS. I didn’t have to relearn anything beyond my management tool of choice (compose, swarm, k8s etc)
