Description

The most frequent use case is start dev on heroku free instance and deploy to digital ocean with docker. Config V1 had great explanation and examples on official hasura channel on youtube. With new cli-migrations-v2 the docs has been changed and it is hard to follow and decide. It could be really nice to have a whole example of steps for switching from heroku to digital ocean, maybe also with some advanced features like security options. And one other thing could be nice is to have an example of dockerizing a node-js app along with a framework of choice(react, vue) and hasura. These 2 examples could really help hasura users who are new to docker and related tech.
