Creating a new Panel
Installing the Panel
Setting up the Portainer stack
Create your Portainer stack using the below compose and .env file
I would recommend deploying GitOps (have a look at the this guide) as this will shift your compose file off of your server and into GitHub.
Confirm the Panel is running
Check the Portainer logs for the panel container, you should see something similar to below

Open up Portainer and navigate to the Panel container
Click on Console and change the command to '/bin/sh'
