About WSDD

WSDD is a Windows-first local stack manager for PHP + Docker development. It automates the first-run environment setup, provisions per-project PHP containers, configures local SSL with MKCert, updates the Windows hosts file, and centralizes container/project operations in a single desktop app.

Current stage: Stable 1.0.2 release
Primary distribution package: Windows MSI installer
Current UI languages: English, Spanish, French, Hindi, Chinese
Language fallback: English is the fallback for any missing localized UI/help content
Issue reporting: GitHub Issues

System Requirements

Operating System: Windows 10 / Windows 11
Privileges: Administrator (required)
Graphics: OpenGL 2.0-compatible graphics driver required by the desktop UI
Docker Desktop: Must be installed by the user before first run
WSL 2: Required by Docker Desktop
Chocolatey: Automatically installed if not present
PowerShell: 7.5+ (automatically installed/upgraded if missing)
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime: No separate VC++ redistributable is required for the shipped MSI because the Windows binaries are built with a static MSVC runtime

What This Application Does

Verifies and prepares dependencies: Chocolatey, PowerShell 7.5+, Docker Desktop, MKCert
Configures the Docker stack: Nginx reverse proxy, MySQL, phpMyAdmin
Manages web projects: Creates PHP containers per version with Apache + Xdebug
Automatic local SSL: MKCert certificates per domain, no browser warnings
Automatic hosts: Modifies C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts for you
Optional developer services: Redis, Memcached, and Mailpit are disabled by default and deploy only after explicit activation in Settings

Docker Stack Containers

Base Services (always active)

WSDD-Proxy-Server — Nginx reverse proxy (ports 80 / 443)
WSDD-MySql-Server — MySQL 8 (port 3306)
WSDD-phpMyAdmin-Server — phpMyAdmin

PHP Containers (one per version used)

Available versions: 5.6 - 7.2 - 7.4 - 8.1 - 8.2 - 8.3 - 8.4

For each activated version, the following development URLs are created:

php{version}.wsdd.dock — Main PHP environment
cron{version}.wsdd.dock — Cron jobs manager
wm{version}.wsdd.dock — Webmin (server administration)

Webmin is installed inside PHP containers from the official Webmin APT repository during image build, so WSDD no longer pins a package version in application settings.

Optional Services (disabled by default)

WSDD-Redis-Server — Redis cache/queues/sessions (redis:7.4.8-alpine)
WSDD-Memcached-Server — Memcached legacy cache (memcached:1.6.39-alpine)
WSDD-Mailpit-Server — Local SMTP capture and web UI (axllent/mailpit:v1.29.7)

Optional services use isolated compose files under Docker-Structure/services/, separate Compose projects, and the shared wsdd-network. They are not deployed with the base stack.

Disk Environment Structure

The application creates and manages the C:\WSDD-Environment\ directory:

C:\WSDD-Environment\
├── PS-Script\          — PowerShell automation scripts
├── Docker-Structure\   — docker-compose, PHP images, services, and SSL assets
├── wsdd-config.json    — Application settings
└── wsdd-secrets.json   — Managed secrets for containers

First Launch — Automatic Process

The application verifies it has administrator privileges
Extracts embedded resources to C:\WSDD-Environment\
Checks Chocolatey → installs if missing
Checks PowerShell 7.5+ → installs/upgrades if missing
Checks Docker Desktop → blocks if not installed/configured
Checks MKCert → installs and configures local CA
Starts the base Docker stack
Shows the main panel

Usage After First Launch

Adding a Project

Click "Add Project"
Choose the local domain (e.g., myproject.wsdd.dock)
Select the PHP version
The application creates the container, SSL certificate, and hosts entry

Managing Containers

Start / stop individual containers from the main panel
Open real-time logs with one click
Restart the complete stack from the menu
