Overview

Provide Docker-based deployment for easy self-hosting — our key differentiator from cloud-only SaaS competitors.

Requirements

  • Docker-based deployment (docker-compose for small shops)
  • Clear setup documentation and one-command install
  • SQLite for single-location / PostgreSQL for multi-location
  • Environment-based configuration
  • Automatic database migrations
  • Built-in backup/restore tooling

Context

Identified as MVP Priority #7 in market research. No open-source self-hostable grooming solution exists — this is our primary market differentiator. Easy deployment is critical for adoption.

Scope

  • Phase 1 (MVP): Dockerfile, docker-compose, SQLite default, env-based config, migration tooling, setup docs
  • Phase 2: PostgreSQL support, backup/restore CLI, Kubernetes manifests
