A big website update: full docs, new guides, and a Docker API reference

The cardinal website got a major update — new pages, deeper documentation,

more guides, and a couple of fixes.

Documentation now covers the full CLI

/docs/ grew from 11 to 18 sections and now covers the entire command

surface, not just the basics:

• Build & publish — cardinal build, push, login/logout, and

export/import.

• Monitoring & events — stats, top, inspect, events.
• Networks & ports — custom networks plus dynamic port add/remove on

running containers.

• Volumes — volume create/ls/inspect/prune.
• Docker-compatible API — cardinal serve with tokens and TLS.
• Diagnostics — doctor and security check.
• System & updates — system prune, update, bootstrap,

supervisor, and shell completion.

New guides

The guides section doubled (3 → 7):

• Deploy a Telegram or Discord bot — persistent code, resource budget,

auto-restart.

• Deploy a website with nginx — from static files to HTTPS with

Let's Encrypt.

• Multi-container stacks with cardinal.toml — WordPress + MySQL, compose

YAML, depends_on healthchecks.

• Scheduled backups that survive a crash — intervals, retention,

encryption, restore.

New pages

• /wings/ — a page for cardinal-wings, the REST agent for

remote management from panels and frontends. Still an active development

project with no stable release, but a spec and a building skeleton now

exist — the page describes the real API surface (containers, images,

blueprints, cluster, streaming logs) and links to the repository.

• /api/ — a full Docker API endpoint reference with curl

examples: containers, images, system, cluster, metrics.

• /benchmarks/ — the footprint numbers behind "no

daemon", with a reproducible measurement script.

• /migrate-from-docker/ — a command-by-command

migration map from Docker, plus what stays and what you can drop.

Blueprints: all 13 example stacks

The blueprints page now lists every multi-container example

from the blueprints repo — 13 stacks including the compose-YAML variants and

the full cardinal.toml field reference, each with its run command:

cardinal up -f examples/wordpress-mysql.toml

Housekeeping

The site also gained a sitemap.xml and robots.txt for search engines, and

code blocks no longer widen the page on long commands — they scroll inside

their own container instead, and generated commands put each -e flag on its

own line.
