# Project Name

A comprehensive and automated solution for deploying applications with Docker using ephemeral runtime policy. This system simplifies the provisioning of entire environments through a single configuration file or guided interactive setup on target computers.

## What Is This?

This is a simple tool that sets up a Docker-based application with ephemeral runtime. Just run one command, and it does all the work for you.

**What you get:**
- Automated Docker container deployment
- Interactive setup wizard for first-time configuration
- Persistent configuration via `.env` file
- Automatic environment detection and setup
- **Ephemeral Runtime Policy** — Docker image built locally, no external dependencies
- **Clean Operation** — Build context cleaned up immediately after build
- **Manual Exec Mode** — Container runs with `tail -f /dev/null`, you exec in to run commands

**How to use it:**
```bash
curl -s "<URL>/deploy-<project>.sh" | bash
```

That's it! The script will ask you a few questions (first time only) and set everything up.

## Quick Examples

**Deploy a new instance:**
```bash
curl -s "<URL>/deploy-<project>.sh" | bash
```

**Access the running container:**
```bash
docker exec -it <instance-name> bash
```

**Check status:**
```bash
docker ps | grep <instance-name>
```

## Documentation

This document (README.md) keeps things simple and gives you the big picture. It only includes these sections:

- **What Is This?** — A brief introduction to the project
- **Documentation** — Where to find more detailed guides
- **Need Help?** — Quick links to get support
- **License** — Legal information about using this software

Use this document to understand what the project does and find the right guide for your needs.

For more details, we have three guides for different needs:

| Document | What's Inside | Who It's For |
|----------|---------------|--------------|
| **[Operations Guide](Design_Doc/Operations.md)** | Step-by-step setup instructions, what to expect, common questions | Everyone — start here! |
| **[Specifications](Design_Doc/Spec.md)** | What this tool does, what you get, what makes it special | Users who want to understand features |
| **[Technical Description](Design_Doc/Tech_Desc.md)** | How it works inside, code structure, technical details | Developers and technical team |

**Quick tip:** If you're setting up the application, just read the Operations Guide. It has everything you need!

**Philosophy of style for all documents:** A much clearer, simpler, and more user-friendly version written in a non-technical tone — perfect for a notice, guideline, or team instruction. This version uses everyday language, short sentences, polite reminders, and clear formatting so anyone (even non-technical team members) can follow it easily.
- `Design_Doc/Tech_Desc.md` — same philosophy of style, except it uses a technical tone.

## Need Help?

- **First time?** See [Operations Guide](Design_Doc/Operations.md) for step-by-step instructions
- **Want to understand features?** Read [Specifications](Design_Doc/Spec.md)
- **Having issues?** Check the [Troubleshooting section](Design_Doc/Operations.md#troubleshooting)
