You can use the background as gradient where the edges are rgba(0,0,0,0). This way it will smoothly blend with background. But this will not work for images. For images You will have to a div of background color and rgba(0,0,0,0) in gradient with color facing outward.

Based on the comments.

The issue was that t2.micro instance was used. The instance has only 1 vCPu and 1GB of ram. This was not enough to run 5 docker containers. Changing instance type to t2.large with 8GB ram and 2 vCPUs solved the problem.

docker-compose allows to specify cpu and memory limits. Maybe you can set them up to keep your containers resource requirements in check.

I'm going to rewrite your code because it seems to be missing something.

In this code, I'm using a single event handler. Then using a counter and switch statement to determine the current click count.

Why do I name projects with a website in the path?

If your package has the exact same import path as someone else's package, then someone will have a hard time trying to use both packages in the same project because the import paths are not unique. So long as everyone uses a string equal to a URL that they effectively "own", such as your GitHub account (or actually own, such as your own domain), then these name collisions will not occur (excepting the fact that ownership of URLs may change over time).

It also makes it easier to go get your project, since the host location is part of the import string. Every source file that uses the package also tells you where to get it from. That is a nice property to have.

Where do I initialize git?

Your project should have some root folder that contains everything in the project, and nothing outside of the project. Initialize git in this directory. It's also common to initialize your Go module here, if it's a Go project.

You may be restricted on where to put the git root by where you're trying to host the code. For example, if hosting on GitHub, all of the code you push has to go inside a repository. This means that you can put your git root in a higher directory that contains all your repositories, but there's no way (that I know of) to actually push this to the remote. Remember that your local file system is not the same as the remote host's. You may have a local folder called github.com/myname/, but that doesn't mean that the remote end supports writing files to such a location.

I assume you have implemented two Lua functions in C: inc_ref_count(obj) and dec_ref_count(obj)

I found the answer with the following lines of code:

Consider a 1000px wide image in a 400px wide div. max-width 100% prevents the image from exceeding the size of the div.

I'm sure it's not the most efficient, but it worked.

Since, I am not 100% sure the context in which you are trying to apply the MVC pattern, a good generic explanation of MVC can be found in GoF's 1995 book, Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object Oriented Software.

In the book, they state the following.

The Model is the application object, the View is its screen presentation, and the Controller defines the way the user interface reacts to user input.

A more robust explanation can be found from Martin Fowler where he also makes the case for a variation of Model View Controller that uses a Presentation Model.

If you are referring to Spring MVC then there is some magic that blurs the lines a bit. But in general, you have a controller that represents some screen or an encapsulated piece of functionality that the user (web requests) interact with. The controller serves up responses that are derived from the domain, usually via a Spring Service (i.e. @Service). The domain (Model) doesn't know anything about the View and the View may or may not know anything about the domain.

Given that, the View should be derived from the Model. But that's not always the case since sometimes how we present things to a screen is not the best logical way to model things in our domain - not to mention, the domain should be presentation agnostic. This leads into Fowler's argument for a Presentation Model, which is a model that belongs to the Presentation.

I call this a Presentation Model because it's a model that is really designed for and thus part of the presentation layer.

Microsoft took that idea and ran with it in a variant of MVC called MVVM (Model View ViewModel).

You can read more about that in Microsoft's documentation on ASP.Net Core.

So, back to your original question of "Should you pass the model directly to the view?" If you are using MVC then the controller is what provides the interaction. But if you're really asking, "Can you bind your view directly to the model?" If your model has all the stuff you need organized how your view needs it, then sure. And if it's simple enough, maybe that's the way to go. Otherwise, you could go with something like a Presentation Model or MVVM.
