Running the App with Docker Compose

• Clone the repository:

  git clone <repository-url>
  cd <repository-directory>

• Run Docker Compose:

  docker-compose up

  This command will start the following containers:

  • mongo: MongoDB container
  • server: Server container
  • react: React container

  Docker Compose will automatically:

  • Create and start the containers defined in the docker-compose.yml file.
  • Create a Docker volume for persistent data storage .

• Accessing the App:

  • Frontend (React app) might be accessible at http://localhost:5000

• Stopping the App:

  To stop and remove the containers (but retain data volumes):

  docker-compose down

  This command will stop and remove the Docker containers defined in docker-compose.yml, while preserving any volumes associated with the containers.
