Hi fellow readers of HN,
I made a new edition of Kamal Handbook to address the big leap of changes from Kamal 2. A lot had to be rewritten and I made the book even a bit longer and better as much as I could.
Kamal is an imperative deployment tool. It's basically a successor to Capistrano, but for a container era. Kamal 2 is solving the main painpoints people had with version 1:
- auto SSL for single-server deployments
- multiple apps on a single-server
- unifying ENV management with 'kamal deploy'
- faster deploys
I really believe that Kamal is now a better option than Docker Compose or Dokku, perhaps even than Kubernetes (use-case provided).
Compared to my previous HN announcement of the first edition mentioning 300 sales, I now crossed 1000+ sales on Gumroad.
I cut a new preview for SHOW HN again here: https://kamalmanual.com/handbook/first-deploy-preview.pdf
