Stacks

Choose a Compose source and deployment target for a Citadel Stack.

A Stack manages an application described by one or more Compose files. On a Docker Standalone Platform it runs as a Compose project; on a Swarm Platform it runs as a native Docker Stack.

Choose the source

SourceUse it when
Web EditorYou want to store and edit Compose content in Citadel
GitYour Compose files belong in a versioned repository

Both sources support Standalone and Swarm Platforms. Source selection controls where Citadel gets the configuration; the Platform determines how it deploys it.

Choose the deployment target

On Docker Standalone, the source pages describe container lifecycle actions, drift checks, and deployment settings. For a cluster, also read Swarm Stacks for Compose compatibility, rollout behavior, Task operations, and rollback limitations.

Use Deployments for individual Standalone containers or Swarm Services for independently managed Swarm Services.
