The internet is a volatile space. Stuff is being removed or cencored every minute of the day, servers crash all the time, and people stop paying for hosting. You might not notice it immediately, but information on the internet is not permanent. If only we could make a backup of the internet…

In my previous blogpost I installed Portainer in Docker Compose. It’s a great graphical user interface for managing Docker containers and images. While exploring Portainer I noticed something strange: I had a lot of unused images! What happened?

Let’s install Portainer!
Installing Portainer Using Docker Compose For those who have read my other blogposts: I love Docker Compose: it’s easy to read and because it’s just a file, it is also very easy to move to another server and get up and running in no time.
Without even knowing it, you probably know a lot. The problem is: there are also a lot of things that get lost in the brain. Goo thing we have stuff like a calendar or a list of contacts, so we don’t have to think about it anymore, but what do we do with all the other stuff?
Bookstack is one tool that can help you get information organized with a nice shelve-book-page structure.
