   cd docs
   npm run dev
   

2. (Optional) Run the app for local development using Docker. Navigate to the project's root directory then run:
   

   # 2.1. Build the client and server containers for localhost development.
   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml build
   
   # 2.2. Create and start the development client and server containers
   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up
   
   # 2.3. Stop and remove the development containers, networks, images and volumes
   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml down

Usage with Docker

Usage with Docker is an alternate option to using Node directly from the Usage section.

Use Pre-Built Development Docker Image

https://hub.docker.com/r/acaptutorials/acaptutorials.github.io

1. Pull the development Docker image from Docker Hub using one of the options.
   

   • docker pull acaptutorials/acaptutorials.github.io:latest
   • docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml pull (using Docker compose from the root project directory)

2. Navigate to the project directory using the command line. Create a .env file inside the /docs directory with reference to the .env.example file.

   • See Usage - step # 2 for more information.

3. Run the development Docker image.
   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up

4. (Optional) Run the development Docker image (from other directories).
   docker run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 acaptutorials/acaptutorials.github.io:latest

Build the Development Docker Image

1. Build the development Docker image on your machine.
   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml build

2. Navigate to the project directory using the command line. Create a .env file inside the /docs directory with reference to the .env.example file.

   • See Usage - step # 2 for more information.

3. Run the development Docker image.
   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up

Usage with GitHub Actions

1. Add the environment variables described in the Installation - step # 2 section to GitHub Secrets.
2. Create a Release to deploy the site to the production environment (GitHub Pages).
3. To update the banner content while there are no code or content updates:
   • Update the GitHub Secrets: RELEASE_VERSION, COMMIT_ID and RELEASE_PAGE
   • Re-deploy the latest production environment workflow from the GitHub Actions tab.
