How-to guides

Use a how-to guide when you already know the Drift basics and need to complete a specific operational or contribution task.

Run Drift with Docker — start a pinned container image, bootstrap a tenant, and preserve its data.
Contribute to Drift — prepare changes, run verification, and open a pull request.
Release Drift — publish a verified multi-architecture container image to GHCR.
Implement a storage adapter — add a persistence bridge without moving domain behavior out of the core.
