CasaOS is about as easy as it gets.

curl -fsSL https://get.casaos.io | sudo bash

It provides a gui front end for docker. You can install it on any debian based system (which mint is). Combine that with the portainer app and there isn't much you can't do.

Oh wow, just glancing at the github page this looks really intriguing. It's like a front-end for assembling your own cloud from existing apps. They even mention running it on older hardware.

You may have just saved me some effort.

Thanks!
