Working with Containers is everyday more common. VS Code provides amazing support for working with containers. In this repository we provide a .devcontainer folder with a docker-compose.yml setup to run this app. Remember to install Docker first and start the Docker desktop app.

The compose will start:

• a container for working with your backend code.
• a container for starting your angular frontend in development mode so you can try your changes right away.
• a container for the SQL Database so you dont have to worry on how to set it up.

In you have the Remote Containers extensions vscode will recognize it and ask you to open your solution using this configuration.

If everything works you should see your 3 containers:

To start playing with your app open a terminal and start your backend:

Do you want to run it in the cloud. You can follow these steps:

Give it 5-10 mins for all the containers to load.

After that you can just follow the same steps described above for containers.
