 ## Additional Notes / Gotchas
 
-Nothing specific to this stack so far.
+- **`APP_SECRET` length:** the default `ChangeThisPassword` is too short on purpose — the container won't start until you set a real 32+ character secret.
+- **Reverse proxy:** in Nginx Proxy Manager point the host at `docmost:3000` and enable **Websockets Support** — real-time collaborative editing depends on it.
+- **Email (invites, password reset):** not configured by default. Add `MAIL_DRIVER=smtp`, `SMTP_HOST`, `SMTP_PORT`, `SMTP_USERNAME`, `SMTP_PASSWORD`, `MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS`, `MAIL_FROM_NAME` to the `docmost` service environment — see the [Docmost docs](https://docmost.com/docs/self-hosting/environment-variables).
+- **Postgres upgrades:** don't bump `POSTGRES_IMAGE` major versions (e.g. 16 → 17) on an existing data dir; dump and restore instead.
