Hello! I need a guide on how to migrate data from shared hosting to Docker. All the guides I can find are about migrating docker containers though! I am going to use a PaaS - Caprover which sets up everything. Can I just import my data into the regular filesystem or does the containerisation have sandboxed filesystems? Thanks!

Thanks! So, here in the Capriver demo config for Wordpress path says: var/www

This is the regular var/www? Not a different one for the Wordpress container?

I would just simple put my current WP files (from public-html) in that directory?

Do the apps all share a db?
