 When deploying to prod is recomended to mount some directories as a docker volume or hostpath. This makes sure data is preserved after deleting the container.
 - Image directory (`/app/public/images`)
+- Logs (`/somnia_logs`)
 
 If you are deploying your DB as a container, check the database docs and make sure database data won't be lost when updating or deleting the container. This example configuration store postgress data on a unnamed docket volume.

+## Environment Vars

+Hare is a list of some "important" or useful environment vars to consider when deploying SomniaRooms

+|            Var             |      Required      | Default Value    | Description                                                                                                                                                 |

+|     `TRUSTED_PROXIES`      | :heavy_check_mark: | `-`              | Allowed proxies address. The proxy IP should be used. Must be set when used behind some proxy/reverse-proxy: traefik (see example below), nginx, ....       |
+|      `TRUSTED_HOSTS`       | :heavy_check_mark: | `-`              | ¿? You may have to set this to your `SERVER_NAME`, but I don't remember how it worked.                                                                      |

 ## Docker compose examples.
 
 Here are some deploy examples using docker compose:
 
 SomniaRooms back-end and front-end can run on the same machine, but some config is needed to work.
 
+> [!WARNING]
+> **NOTE (31/05/2025)**: Some examples may be out-of-date. Use only as reference! Check ["dev" `compose.yaml`](../compose.yaml) and [Readme](../README.md) and apply relevant diffs.
+
 ### Deploy back-end and front-end on different servers (different ip address).
 If your servers have different IP addresses everything is a little bit easier. You can set-up subdomains for each one.
