Beyond Docker
Docker Makes Freqtrade Easier.
No Docker Makes It Effortless.
Freqtrade recommends Docker — but you still need Docker Compose, volume mounts, container networking, and CLI skills. cryptorobot.ai needs none of it.
The Problem
What You Deal With Today
Docker Learning Curve
Docker Compose, volumes, networking, logs — an entire ecosystem to learn before touching trading.
Config File Management
You still must edit JSON config files, mount them into containers, and restart on every change.
Update Cycle
Pull images, rebuild containers, migrate volumes — every update is a mini-deployment project.
