I am not a native English speaker and using google translation. If I offend you, I apologize. 😃

The biggest problem is the disk occupation. Whatever portainer of others panels, they cannot allow me dispatch the storage location. Espacially the docker cost a high require of storage. I am a SLC/MLC believer, and i am always worry about the read/write consume cost by docker, because the folder locate in the system partition.

Another misery is that many applications’ set up script will pull many image and say nothing in the introdution. If i want to undo the installation, it is so hard to tell which one is foreign.

The following is my personal technology stack rank of prefer to install. The difficulty of deploy is the key judgment, and the web access will be the second factor:

1. TypeScript/Node/JavaScript —— Powerful package management. No compile requirement. Easy to customize, embed and reuse in personal projects.
2. Go —— One file and one command.
3. PHP —— No compile requirement. Easy to customize. Code fast. Abundant LNMP support tool.
4. Java —— Less files. Easy to run especialy springboot framework. But more and more project prefter front and rear separation.
5. Python —— No compile requirement. Easy to customize. But version problem is unbearable. The package management is centralized. Huge size package will be download into the system disk (The root folder), espacially the AI app.
6. C# —— If lucky enoungh, it is possible to run on the linux. But many of them are served for windows desktop.
7. C/C++/Ruby —— System invasion, hard to backup and deploy.

All the kind of project above, I am using supervisor and LNMP panel to manage, and deside the location among my 3 SSDs and 6 HDDs.

The .Docker and podman might be the trend, but in my humble oppinion, in most of senarion there is no need to use them. Native deployment can handle more and actually is not too hard, except something complex like Calibre and Jellyfin. Also I am looking for Alternative option of Calibre and Jellyfin.
