The complexity for the sake of complexity!
No, you don't need to write your own programming language and compiler to deploy a webapp across multiple platforms.
No, you don't.
Whatever the problem is.
Yes, I understand it's complex but really, you don't.
(Even in 2006 when you couldn't just stuff your whole support stack into a container.)
Trust me.
