Spin

Command-line tool that runs a project's Docker Compose development environment and deploys the same containers to servers with Docker Swarm.

Spin is a command-line tool that starts a project’s Docker Compose development environment and deploys the same kind of containers to servers with Docker Swarm. A developer installs it with a shell script, through Composer or through npm, and runs it from the project directory with Docker Desktop installed. Server Side Up, a brand of 521 Dimensions LLC, maintains it in the serversideup GitHub organization, and questions go to the maintainers’ Discord and to GitHub Discussions.

Worth knowing

The tool runs only on the developer’s machine. Production containers run in Docker Swarm on servers the user provides or has Spin provision. A paid Laravel template from the same company is a separate product and is not part of this tool.
