Visual Docker Compose & Nginx configuration builder

DevOpsForge is a free, 100% client-side visual configurator for Docker Compose, Nginx, Caddy, healthchecks, and cloud backup scripts. Generate optimized production-ready environments in 60 seconds with zero server-side uploads.
The fact that everything runs in the browser and nothing gets uploaded is a huge relief for stuff like nginx configs. Generated a compose file with healthchecks in under a minute and it actually worked first try.
Thank you so much, @elciogluna6892 ! That was the main reason I built this client-side. Uploading Nginx configs containing server IP addresses and domains always feels risky, so keeping it in the browser was a must.
So glad the healthcheck integration worked on the first try for you! Let me know if there are any other features or frameworks you'd like to see added.
This is exactly the kind of tool I wish existed years ago when I was wrestling with nginx configs at 2am. One thing that would make it even more useful for me: a dry-run preview mode that shows the actual rendered files side by side before I download, so I can sanity check the output without spinning up a container.
Thank you, @aysimayasanfkz! I've been in that 2 AM Nginx configuration struggle myself many times.
Regarding the preview: the dark-mode code panel on the right of the screen actually updates dynamically in real-time as you toggle options. You can click the file tabs at the top of it (like docker-compose.yml, nginx.conf, or Dockerfile) to sanity-check the code immediately before downloading!
That said, having a split-screen view to display two files side-by-side at the same time is a fantastic idea for wider monitors—I will definitely add that to the roadmap. Thanks for the suggestion!
Tried it for a quick nginx setup and the generated config was clean, no weird defaults. Love that nothing leaves the browser, makes it easy to tweak without worrying about data leaks.
Thanks for testing it out, @nurglrt
I spent a lot of time ensuring the generated templates are clean, standard, and free of weird defaults so developers don't have to delete extra bloat. Keeping it 100% local inside your browser is definitely the best way to prevent data leaks. Appreciate the feedback!
The 100% client-side angle is genuinely refreshing, especially for something dealing with infra configs. Would love to see a diff view that shows what changed between the generated config and a previous one I saved locally, makes it way easier to iterate without losing track of what I tweaked by hand after the initial generation.
Hi Asiye! Thank you for the feedback.
That is an incredibly smart feature request. Since developers almost always tweak their generated configs by hand afterwards, having a way to compare the new output against a previously saved local file would be a huge time-saver.
Since the app is 100% client-side, we could implement this by letting you load your previous config file directly in the browser and rendering a side-by-side diff (using a JS diffing library).
I've officially added this "Local Config Diffing" feature to the product roadmap. Thank you for the suggestion!
Love that everything runs in the browser with zero uploads, makes it actually usable for real client configs without trust concerns. The 60 second generation claim is impressively tight too.
Thanks a lot for the feedback, @nilferwaxa ! You hit the nail on the head—client projects often have strict NDA or trust concerns, so keeping everything local in-browser was a top priority for this builder.
Awesome to hear that the 60-second generation claim held up for you! Appreciate your support.
