Why? Did you read the introduction part of this guide? Seems like you didn't. The point is to teach people who are afraid of the CLI how to use it properly and use this kind of setup as a learning project for them. It originated from a request by @deanhills.

I made a thread about how to install Docker with Portainer. In there it would be literally a few clicks to install a Wordpress Docker container. What do you learn though? Nothing at all. You don't set up any web server, database server and etc. Learning how to install Docker and get a container running is very easy compared to set up your own web server, PHP and database stack to host your own application.

Agreed @Mashiro.  I also think command line installation is an important learning curve before one moves to a container, as it's not just a matter of creating WordPress from the command line.  There is so much background knowledge in this tutorial that prepares one for Docker at a later stage.  I learned much more than just setting up LEMP with WordPress. This may be excellent preparation for getting stuck in with Docker later on.

I didn't have any expectation of a tutorial, but when you created one, you were so much on the mark with what was needed.  I worked through the tutorial again today - there is just enough in the tutorial to make it brilliant in its simplicity.  There is so much more I learned than just installing WP from the command line.  For starters adding 3rd party repositories, how to create a folder tree for a Web Server.  Nginx .conf default permissions - new file.  Etc. etc.  All of it so simple, but at the same time great learning blocks for future reference.

If I may ask.  And only if you have time.  Do you think it's possible to expand your tutorial to include setup of phpmyadmin.

I remember from freevps.us days that you're not in favour of URL browser access to phpmyadmin.  Is there a secure way that one can set it up as an extension of this tutorial?
