How does this compare to Dokku?[1] I've been using that for a few years now with minimal lift/maintenance. I'm wondering what the trade-offs are of something like this?
If you're running small projects, Dokku is a cheaper option compared to running a k8s cluster. Porter helps you leverage all the benefits of k8s like scalability, scalability, configurability, and is great for multi-cloud environments due to interoperability - these are all useful when you're dealing with projects at a larger scale.
