Run the app

docker-compose up --build -d

NGINX

App includes an nginx configuration.

This config serves the letters app at the root (\) level and expects the api to be running on port 5000 and serves it at \api\

At the time of writing, accessing the api directly is much faster via Firefox than it is via Chrome

Dev Configuration

Launch dev container in vs code and then run

yarn install

yarn start

WSL Dev Container Notes

While inside the container, to commit to github (via ssh) you need to have your ssh keys accessible from inside the dev container.

VS Code docs say it will forward your ssh-agent to the container, but what's not clear here is that they mean your WINDOWS ssh-agent, not the one running inside your WSL box.

I tried the linux + WSL part of these instructions on sharing Git +SSH credentials with your container to no avail.

Nothing worked until following the windows instructions, so it's unclear if the linux+WSL steps were necessary.
