Proxmox can be a bit of a bear to setup. The documentation is not very approachable for new users. It uses a lot of terms without definition which is a deadly sin of technical writing IMO. Guides for getting an Ubuntu Server VM setup vary wildly and often recommend outdated settings.

Set up your favorite Linux server distro and then go ham on setting up docker (dockge is a great tool to introduce compose).

Just having something that shows the field options and formats it correctly would be fantastic. Tooltips and all that could be added later to lower the bar of entry for new users.

Assuming your mean in the US. Depends on the state.

Then you ask questions about what the past person could possibly have been thinking. You wonder what logic path brought them to create the code this way. You check git blame. It was you.
