 Ensure you are in the project directory where the Dockerfile is located. Build the Docker image using:
- - docker build -t iggyapi:latest .
-
+```bash 
+  docker build -t iggyapi:latest .

 This creates an image named iggyapi with the latest tag.

 Start a container from the built image, mapping port 8000 on your host to port 8000 in the container:
- - docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -e PORT=8000 -v C:/git/IggyApi/instance:/app/instance iggyapi:latest
-
-
--d: Runs the container in detached mode.
--p 8000:8000: Maps port 8000 of the container to port 8000 on your host.
---name iggyapi-container: Names the container for easy reference.
