You click "create," and a few seconds later there's a URL that serves your app. In between, a surprising amount happens — most of it on a machine you've never logged into. A Playground on Fibe isn't a container we start. It's a small, ordered ritual: claim a database row, clone source onto a remote host, merge registry credentials, build an image, render a compose file from a template, ship it over SSH, and only then run docker compose up — on the Marquee, not on us.

This post walks that ritual end to end. Eight steps, nine statuses, one set of legal transitions, and a fair amount of paranoia about what happens when a step fails halfway through. If you've ever wondered what "in progress" actually means while the spinner spins, this is the tour.
