A CLEARER WORKFLOW
From project folder
to working site.
Start with the Contao project you already have. ContaoDock brings the local runtime and environment setup around it.
02 RUNTIME
PHP 8.4 WEBMariaDB DB
Run it with Docker
ContaoDock generates an inspectable Compose setup, starts the services, and keeps database state in a named volume.
03 ENVIRONMENTS
LOCAL→STAGING→PRODUCTION
Prepare the next step
Save SSH profiles and inspect a code transfer preview. Actual code deployment and promotion are still in progress.
SAFE BY DEFAULT
Your data has
its own workflow.
Code transfer and content data are different jobs. ContaoDock keeps them separate, shows the direction and scope, and makes a recovery snapshot before replacing a sync target.

BUILT AROUND YOUR PROJECT
⌂
Your files stay yours
Keep editing in your usual tools. The project remains on the host and is mounted into its local runtime.
▤
Inspect the setup
Generated Compose configuration stays readable. Services and logs are available from the project dashboard.
⌑
Secrets stay separate
Local database passwords go to the OS secure store. Remote access uses your SSH agent or a key path.
GET STARTED

better Contao work.
