In February 2025, Matthew Ferretti developed a Docker-based deployment system for the DSC-McMaster-U/ai-journal repository, focusing on both backend and frontend services. He created dedicated Dockerfiles and a .dockerignore to streamline build processes, configured the backend to run on port 8080, and prepared the Next.js frontend as a standalone build. By leveraging Docker, JavaScript, and Next.js, Matthew established a reproducible environment that supports efficient CI/CD pipelines and simplifies onboarding across development, testing, and production. His work laid a solid foundation for deployment reliability and operational efficiency, demonstrating depth in containerization, build optimization, and cross-environment configuration management.
