Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; start by reviewing the repository's existing Docker and GlassFish usage and documentation. Done means a newcomer can follow a from-scratch tutorial covering the requested deployment path, master password, JNDI database access, and clustering examples.

Description

I hope its ok to use the tracker, but I've read about this on reddit nearly 3 weeks ago and find it very interesting. However, I've not seen any documentation or examples...

Is there anywhere some kind of tutorial how to start "from scratch" for a typical project?

e.g.: config for a deployment of a webapp on a certain path, setting master password, DB access via JNDI and cluster etc.?
