I saw that Docker Compose Maker in the wild. I could see how that would be very handy for those just getting started in the SelfHosting arena.

DCM looks somewhat interesting, I’m not sure I have a use case for it between proxmox helper scripts and the “Docker run to Docker compose converter” in it-tools, but I always like messing with new containers so I might spin up DCM just to see if there’s a use for me.

I also find it a little funny that DCM is a docker container that you have to copy a compose file from the documentation to launch when that is the exact use case they are saying you can avoid by using it.

Sometimes I’ll throw something on the test server just to see how it works and maybe gain a little knowledge along the way.

100% agree. This feels like more of a learning tool to me. See how compose files are structured, maybe combine it with some documentation and start branching out from there.
