Laradock is a full PHP development environment for Docker, shipping pre-configured containers for web servers, PHP-FPM, databases, caching, search, and 100+ other services. It works with any PHP project (Laravel, Symfony, WordPress, etc.) via a CLI or plain Docker Compose, and includes production deployment tooling.

Use cases

• run laravel on docker locally
• set up a php development environment with docker
• spin up nginx php-fpm mysql redis stack for php
• docker environment for wordpress or symfony development
• eliminate works on my machine issues in php teams
• deploy php app to kubernetes or cloud run from docker setup
• local php stack without installing php and mysql natively

When to choose

• you develop PHP applications and want a complete, pre-configured local Docker stack
• you work across Laravel, Symfony, WordPress, or other PHP frameworks and want one consistent environment
• your team needs identical dev environments on Linux, macOS, and Windows
• you want optional production deployment from the same Docker setup

When to avoid

• you only need a single lightweight container or custom minimal Dockerfile
• your project is not PHP-based
• you prefer managing your own docker-compose files from scratch
• you need a production-only orchestration solution rather than a dev environment
