Build
Ant reads your project and produces an image: a Dockerfile, nixpacks, buildpacks, railpack, or a prebuilt image. Compose projects build with docker compose.
$ ant haulLocal-first build and deploy
Ant builds your project into a container image and runs it on your machine, with Docker and an optional managed Caddy for local domains. Remote machines stay opt-in: register a server, and deploys travel over an encrypted channel with no inbound ports.
$ curl -fsSL https://ants-docs.pages.dev/dl/install.sh | shCollaborate
One portable identity, per-machine rosters — viewer, deployer, admin, owner — signed single-use invites, and groups that divide a codebase into team-owned pieces.
$ ant colony invite --role deployer --machine prodDeploy
Run it locally behind Caddy, or ship the image to a registered machine over an encrypted channel. No inbound ports.
$ ant trail deploy prod
