I use Portainer on my primary server and Agent on the other three. On each server, I am running Watchtower to keep the images current. Even though I can access logs in Portainer, I like Dozzle for viewing logs on each server. As an additional tool, I use Lazydocker for quick work while I am in each server via SSH.
I initially learned Docker with Compose files. I wanted to learn "the hard way" before trying a web GUI. I'm kind of old school. I like that I can easily create a container in the web GUI, use a template (which are abundant,) build a Compose file as a stack in Portainer, or just launch a docker run -d command at the prompt and the container just appears in Portainer. Flexibility is a good thing.
