+# Examples section
+
+In this subfolders are some examples how to use the docker image. There are two sections:
+ 
+ * [`dockerfiles`](https://github.com/nextcloud/docker/tree/master/.examples/dockerfiles)
+ * [`docker-compose`] (https://github.com/nextcloud/docker/tree/master/.examples/docker-compose)
+
+The `dockerfiles` are derived images, that add or alter certain functionalities of the default docker images. In the `docker-compose` subfolder are examples for deployment of the application, including database, redis, collabora and other services.
+
+## Dockerfiles
+The Dockerfiles use the default images as base image an build on top of it.
+
+
+Example | Description
+------- | -------
+[cron]() | uses supervisord to run the cron job inside the container (so no extra container is needed).
+[imap]() | adds dependency to authentificate user via imap
+[smb]() | adds dependency to use smb shares
+
+
+
+
+
+## docker-compose
+In docker-compose examples additional services are added to create a complete nextcloud installation. The examples are designed to run out-of-the-box.
+Before running the examples you have to open the `db.env` and docker-compose file and fill in appropriate passwords and your domain name(s).
+
+
+**TODO: ADD INSECURE DESCRIPTION**
+
+
+### with-nginx-proxy
+The nginx proxy adds a proxy layer between nextcloud and the internet. The proxy is designed to serve multiple sites on the same host machine.
+The advantage in adding this additional layer is the combination with a container for [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) certificate handling.
+This combination of the [jwilder/nginx-proxy](https://github.com/jwilder/nginx-proxy) and [jrcs/docker-letsencrypt-nginx-proxy-companion](https://github.com/JrCs/docker-letsencrypt-nginx-proxy-companion) gives you fully automated https encryption of your nextcloud installation without worrying about certificate generation, validation or renewal.
+
+To use this example complete the following steps:
+
+1. open docker-compose.yml
+  a. insert your nextcloud domain behind `VIRTUAL_HOST=`and `LETSENCRYPT_HOST=`
+  b. enter a valid email behind `LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL`
+  c. choose a root password for the database behin `MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=`
+  d. enter your collabora domain behind `domain=`
+2. choose a password for the database user nextcloud in `db.env`behind `MYSQL_PASSWORD`
+3. run `docker-compose build --pull` to pull the most recent base images and build the custom dockerfiles
+4. start nextcloud with `docker-compose up -d`
+
+
+If you want to update your installation to a newer version of nextcloud, repeat the steps 3 and 4.
