envwarden is a simple open-source script that lets you manage your server secrets with Bitwarden.
Here’s a simple way to update your Kubernetes secrets directly from envwraden, so they are always in-sync.

docker-compose is one of those essential tools that make working with docker so much better. I do use docker directly occasionally, but anything non-trivial, I’d reach out docker-compose immediately. It allows you to “glue” things together and describe the stack in such a neat way.
I currently handle my dev environments with docker-compose, and even some live and staging deployments (like thumbor). I also manage remote database backups with it (using restic, postgresql, stunnel, redis and rdb-tools). In the latter example, it saves me from installing different versions of the database clients and connectors. I am able to instantly upgrade them, and then connect to the remote databases and back them up or restore. It makes the backup system itself immutable and disposable.
Recently however, I started using docker-compose for something that I haven’t considered before: a replacement for shared hosting.
