If you seek to unlock the potential of a powerful trifecta — Ktor, PostgreSQL, and Docker — in your pursuit of seamless deployment, you’ve come to the right place.

Today we embark on a journey revealing the art of deploying a Ktor-PostgreSQL server using Docker on Hostinger or any other server of your choosing
