Hosting on AWS about knests HOT 3 OPEN

If we work together to figure this out, I'm happy to contribute docs to the readme for this 😄

Hi @Beeze,

I didn't had the necessary time lately to work on extra projects unfortunately.

There are in fact more choices on how to host this:

• without using anything docker (use nginx as a web server to serve the static files generated by the app in the client/ folder, then configure and start the server using pm2)
• using docker swarm - this might work out-of-the-box right now, once you have a docker installation in swarm mode on some server (which is as easy as docker swarm init), by replacing the docker-compose up ... with docker stack deploy .... I have a few apps deployed using docker swarm and I am quite happy with them
• I added K8s on the roadmap, because it seems to be what the industry prefers so I thought it would be helpful to have some exposure to it, even though it's more complicated, more expensive and much difficult to debug (without extensive training on kubernetes).

I think the best way to implement the k8s deployment, would be using helm charts. This one over here seems to be a good starting point.

Please let me know if I can assist you further, but also please be aware that the more complex the issue is, the more it might take me to investigate and resolve it (since I don't have that much free time in the next few months)
