@Yeasir0032 As a DevOps enthusiast, I've drafted various Dockerfile for my projects. While I haven't thoroughly reviewed the codebase, I understand the general steps required for creating a Dockerfile for any Node.js project.

I anticipate encountering challenges while crafting the Dockerfile for such a large project, which may require troubleshooting. I believe it will take considerable amount of time for creating a Dockerfile for this project and finally reducing it's size.
Once the Dockerfile is successfully created, I plan to proceed with generating a docker-compose file for the Discord clone.

Dockerfile's basic implementation

FROM ubuntu:20.04
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY . .
RUN npm run build
Will decide it later which port to expose
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "start"]

The docker file is crashing the server and the deployment

Considering my limited expertise in DevOps, I am contemplating the removal of the Docker file.
