Running Locally

1. Ensure that you have Docker installed on your system.
2. Clone the repo.
3. Create a .env in the project root, and copy .env.example into it. Generate a random API_SECRET, and obtain a mailtrap API key for email sending.
4. cd mood-harbour-backend
5. make dev
6. This will spin up the docker-compose, and the containers needed to run the dev project (the main server, the database server, and one container for the DB admin view).
