@MaxFrax96 Toolforge provides a Platform As A Service (PaaS) solution where you can run your tools using various runtimes, have access to databases, and other facilities, by using the webservice command.

The Cloud VPS project, on the other hand, provides something more similar to a Infrastructure As A Service (IaaS) solution where you create your own Virtual Machines. That gives you more freedom to experiment with tools like docker-compose, but also more responsibility in maintaining your servers. If you haven't done so already, please read this page about how to request a Cloud VPS project.

In summary, although we do use Docker in some places inside the Toolforge platform, it is not available to developers directly. You have to follow the development guides and use the webservice command to start your tool in the Grid Engine or the Kubernetes cluster. For low-level access to infrastructure components like Docker, your best option is to request a Cloud VPS project.

I'm going to close this task but feel free to re-open if you think I'm misunderstood your request. We're also available on #wikimedia-cloud IRC channel if you have any doubts.
