This is just a boilerplate for new projects, there is no goal to have a full customisation. This configuration should give a fast development environment.
Have a basic configuration with a reverse proxy to server website on localhost with domain name app.dev.
To make it work you should make a configuration in your /ets/hosts/ file, add next line 127.0.0.1 app.dev.
Nginx is a reliable web server and I prefer always have it as a front. It should serve all static content as images,
css, javascript files.
Basic application based on express.js framework and mongoose to establish a connection with MongoDB.
Simple installation without any configuration.
In this example we use 3 containers: web - with nginx, app - node.js app, mongo - mongodb.
They have a shared network. Nginx configured to use a shared volume /src/public to server static content.
MongoDB uses shared volume data to store database. Node.js application uses /src folder for application needs.
