[MapServer-users] Frontend recommendations for my new project: Serve time domain data?

Hi all!

After I got my first mapserver project on the road really quickly, 
thanks to the community here, I'm working on my second one...

I'm pulling Sentinel 1 and 2 imagery of my municipality every day, 
pushing them through some gdal magic and - at the moment - sending them 
to a Telegram group for other SA (situational awareness), map and nature 
nerds in my area.

I already wrote a Python script to create shape file catalogs for the 
files including the time domain and I have a mapserver test instance 
running.

Now I'm looking for a good frontend - or maybe I have to tinker one 
together myself? I'd like something lightweight, docker-friendly and 
easily customizable. I am tinkering with GeoSolutions' MapStore at the 
moment, but while it's a really cool concept, it's not overly 
docker-friendly when it comes to customization and it has some weird 
quirks, probably due to it being JAVA. I'd also like to avoid PostgreSQL 
if possible because I don't know anything about it except that upgrading 
is a huge hassle. I'm more of a MySQL/MariaDB guy.

Any recommendations?

-Stefan
