• copy the docker/env.example and paste into docker/.env
• copy the docker/docker-compose.override.example.yml and paste into docker/docker-compose.override.yml
• copy the src/.env.example and past into src/.env
• set cd to src & run npm install command
• set cd to docker & run docker-compose up -d --build
• In case if you're using windows, open docker/app/entrypoint.sh and save end of line sequence as LF instead of CRLF

After building the docker containers, you'll need to check whether everything is working fine.

• run docker ps and check all the services are up and running
• run docker exec -it container_name sh to enter into the app container. [change container_name with appropiate container name found from command]

• taking Gmail as an example. Sender email should have two factor authentication enabled. Go to gmail sender account settings, under security, generate custom app password and copy and paste to environment variable.

• No need to use actual password. otherwise email would be counted as spams.
