Sorry if this is very basic question but my background is not in web development. I'd like to deploy very basic web app (say ngnix + letsencrypt + my backend) and I thought about using GCP instead of rolling my own CoreOS/Atomic instance. However I'm unable to make sense out of pricing plan and my estimates range from $7 (cheaper than alternatives) to $2000 (!).

How to estimate running a few docker containers in GCP which in total would take <500M and would be idle most of the time?

It all depends on your needs for availability and performance.  "a few containers" can usually fit on a single node.  You can run a 1-node, 1-core GKE "cluster" for the cost of the VM (< $30/month) + any additional resources you use.
