Are there any good how-tos for how to set up a non-trivial container with s6 and s6-rc? Last time I looked at this the documentation was pretty sparse, and more of a reference and design document than a set of how-tos.


This is well thought-out and quite well documented: https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay

There's a huge community https://www.linuxserver.io/ for people building "home server" containers that all use the s6-overlay, hundreds of examples there. They have a lot of tutorials and a very busy Discord, Reddit, etc with all levels of experience from container developers to people who don't program and are just getting into Docker. I run a bunch of these containers myself and am pretty happy with how adaptable they are.
