Wired into a scheduled GitLab CI pipeline that becomes an automated nightly off-server backup — and the same ZIP restores straight into DDEV for local development against real production data.

Real .shippy.yaml configs for TYPO3 v14 and Pimcore, the eight-step deploy process, and the bootstrap gotchas that only show up on a genuinely empty server.

The real differences are the runtime each one needs to deploy, the config format, and what ships built in beyond the deploy itself.
