Building and running

To build and run this project clone this repository. You must have docker installed. On Ubuntu use the following command sudo apt install docker-ce In the repository directory run the following script. ./build-run.sh

After that script is run you should be able to visit http://localhost/ too see the application. Running this script will also start up a Cloud9 IDE environment accessible at http://localhost:8181/ use "username" and "password" to log in to it. I use Cloud9 for my IDE as all development done on this project so far was done on a Chromebook! Feel free to use it if you wish. If not don't worry about it.
