# WordPress Docker Container

Lightweight WordPress container with Nginx 1.26 & PHP-FPM 8.4 based on Alpine Linux.

_WordPress version currently installed:_ **6.7.2**

* Used in production for many sites, making it stable, tested and up-to-date

* Optimized for 100 concurrent users

* Optimized to only use resources when there's traffic (by using PHP-FPM's ondemand PM)

* Works with Amazon Cloudfront or CloudFlare as SSL terminator and CDN

* Multi-platform, supporting AMD4, ARMv6, ARMv7, ARM64

* Built on the lightweight Alpine Linux distribution

* Small Docker image size (+/-90MB)

* Uses PHP 8.4 for the best performance, low cpu usage & memory footprint

* Can safely be updated without losing data

* Fully configurable because wp-config.php uses the environment variables you can pass as an argument to the container
