## Additional Notes / Gotchas

Sencho overlaps heavily with Dockhand (the manager this repo is built around) — treat this stack as an evaluation/experiment, not a replacement.

## Dockhand Stack, Deploy from Git

Cookbooks Repository
stackname: sencho_dev
Compose file path: sencho_dev/compose.yaml
Additional env file (optional): sencho_dev/sample.env

Then "Load" sencho_dev/sample.env into the Environmental variables in dockhand
