You're mixing terms here. A VM is not bare-metal.

Yes I'm aware. Using the term in a different sense, but I can see how that's confusing under this context.
I meant just an old-school deploy without containers and the sort.
I, personally, prefer the bare-metal deploys of automated scripts. I usually just spin up a VM and write a bash script to "prep" it the way I want. After that, I just run "./deploy" and it pushes where I want. I like this because I feel like I have more control and it actually feels easier. Plus, I've run into weird issues with Docker that take so long to debug that it completely cancels out the benefit of using it for me.
The bash script I have works for every side project I create, and is simply copied from project to project. :)
