Hi, I’m trying out Portainer, and am currently a Docker noob. I’m trying to figure out how to just host an Nginx server using the web interface, and got a working Nginx container running.  
Trying to figure out how to upload files to the web server. How is this done, or is there a decent tutorial or documentation on this? Many resources I am finding are giving me commands do manage Docker, though Umbrel seems to be a bit non-standard with its GUI-focused approach.  
Thanks!
