## What it is
A docker-compose boilerplate stack for running Symfony 5 applications with PHP 8, Nginx, MySQL, and an ELK logging stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana). It provides ready-made Dockerfiles and compose configuration for local development environments.

## Use cases
- set up a local Symfony development environment with Docker
- run PHP-FPM and Nginx containers for a Symfony app
- centralize Nginx and Symfony logs in Elasticsearch and view them in Kibana
- quickly spin up a MySQL database alongside a PHP application
- configure Xdebug debugging in a containerized Symfony project

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made docker-compose stack for Symfony development
- you need PHP-FPM, Nginx, MySQL, and ELK logging wired together out of the box
- you want to visualize application and web server logs via Kibana locally

## When to avoid
- you use a framework other than Symfony
- you need a production-grade, actively maintained deployment setup
- you prefer modern alternatives like Symfony's official Docker support or FrankenPHP
- you don't want the overhead of the ELK stack for simple projects

## Facets
- artifact type: infra-config
- maturity: maintenance
- function: deployment, container-orchestration, logging, http-server, monitoring
