Generating a compose file is easy. Keeping a team aligned is the hard part. Stacktora isn't a docker-compose generator. It's the workflow that keeps every developer's environment identical, current, and runnable — from the first clone to the hundredth hire. Define your stack — languages, databases, services — and Stacktora generates a production-ready, runnable bootstrap: docker-compose, Makefile, CI, and 15+ files. Clone, to running in minutes.
The average developer spends their entire first day — sometimes their first week — just getting a project to run locally. That's not just a productivity tax; it's a morale killer. I (we) built Stacktora because we were tired of watching brilliant engineers waste precious time on setup when they could be shipping code. With Stacktora, onboarding takes minutes, not days.
Spun up a Node Postgres Redis stack in a couple minutes and everything just ran on first try. The Makefile targets are a nice touch, saves a ton of tribal knowledge going to new team members.
