A mature, flexible CMS for structured content, multilingual sites, and large editorial teams.

This page describes the Levelrail template for Drupal (Applications). It deploys the services below as one Docker Compose app on your own server. Project site: [https://www.drupal.org/docs](https://www.drupal.org/docs).

Recommended memory: about 1024 MiB.

## Services, ports and volumes

| Service | Image | Container ports | Volumes |
| - | - | - | - |
| `db` | `postgres:16-alpine` | none | `drupal_db_data -> /var/lib/postgresql/data` |
