#2>Docker powered mini-Heroku in less than 100 lines of Bash
Can I use this to deploy Rails application like I do on Heroku, or is it Nodejs only at the moment?
I'm currently in a limbo between WebFaction (VPS with some configuration hand holding) and DigitalOcean (you're on your own).

Dokku uses Heroku buildpacks, so yes: https://github.com/progrium/buildstep#supported-buildpacks

#4This is awesome. These are four technologies that I'm currently learning - good timing.

I'm just making the same transition (except to Linode as I'm not ready to trust DigitalOcean with production sites)
May I ask why you're moving away from Webfaction?

#6Does it feel like Docker is picking up some steam right now? I like the concept but am still wondering if Docker is a better approach than going straight to the machine. How necessary is the 1GB droplet (vs 512mb)?

#7Great read. I could see incorporating this into my stack... In any case, I was happy to learn about each of the tools/projects mentioned within - especially stoked about Docker!

You should be able to run with just 512 MB, as long as your app can do with that. Docker itself as a tiny footprint, and containers have almost zero overhead :-)

#9Does that mean Ubuntu on DigitalOcean has Docker support out of the box?

I'm moving away from WebFaction because I'm afraid of the hand holding limiting my growth when my website hits more users. Why are you moving away from WebFaction?
