About
The most widely used website builder, on your own device with its own database. Themes, plugins, blog, shop, whatever you make of it.
Notes
Full WordPress install with a dedicated MySQL 8 database, isolated in its own bundle. The agent generates the DB root + user passwords on first install and stores them locally on the device — Obacht never sees them.
Each instance is a fully self-contained bundle: its own Docker network, its own data volumes, its own secrets. For a lighter, single-container option without MySQL see the wordpress-sqlite template instead.
Alternative to: Wix, Squarespace
