First of all, I must say that I am not an expert on Docker containers and local site deployment, as I am mainly a front-end software developer and have never gone beyond CI/CD so far.
I am the creator of “Syndrome Main Computer,” a project with over 100,000 unique visitors (1/2 weeks of life). I wanted to ask if anyone has a guide to help me set up local hosting for this NextJS 15-based project. I purchased a .app domain, and the site was running on https://syndromemaincomputer.app/, but unfortunately, it exceeded the free resources within a few days (VERCEL).
Do you have any advice for me? Thank you very much in advance!
Damn! Congrats on hitting 100k visitors it is very impressive. Honestly, since your project is Next.js 15, the smoothest path is to stick with Vercel. If you ran out of free resources, you might want to look at their Pro plan (pretty affordable compared to managing servers yourself).
But if not, you can create a dockerfile in your project and ship it.
