 Inertia is set up serverside by executing a script over SSH that installs Docker and starts an Inertia daemon image with [access to the host Docker socket](https://bobheadxi.github.io/dockerception/#docker-in-docker). This Docker-in-Docker configuration gives the daemon the ability to start up other containers *alongside* it, rather than *within* it, as required. Once the daemon is set up, we avoid using further SSH commands and execute Docker commands through Docker's Golang API. Instead of installing the docker-compose toolset, we [use a docker-compose image](https://bobheadxi.github.io/dockerception/#docker-compose-in-docker) to build and deploy user projects.
