[Haskell-cafe] Best deployment method for Hakyll websites (with Stack)?

The way I deploy my website (kane.cx) is exactly as you do with Jekyll.
I do own the server though, so I just installed ghc/hakyll. You can
always push as a user with a home directory and give it access to the
relevant htdocs directory (using ACLs if neccessary).

Docker sounds like a cleaner idea, but I haven't done anything with it
except set up some pre-packaged stuff.
