I wonder if they have a setup without Docker. Not a fan, wonder why they even bother with Docker if they're using GO. Thats one of the great things about GO. Easy distributable that works on all platforms.

Not all of our code is in Go. PeerDB has multiple components: the workers, the UI and the query layer. Some of which is in Rust, Go and Typescript.

While it would certainly be possible to package them into individual binaries, I found it significantly easier to define the stack in a docker compose file with the requisite environment setup.
