Using Docker it’s possible to fire up Emoncms on a bare system (assuming Docker is installed) in a couple of minutes with all the LAMP config faff taken care of. This is great for development since you can play about with Emoncms running in a Docker container without fear of messing up your main Emoncms install. In the future, Docker can even be used as a deployment tool for Emoncms. I…

Thanks
