 The mealplanner project can be built and run using docker-compose on platforms that support Docker (Linux, MacOS, Windows 10)
 
-In the main project directory there is a docker-compose.yml file that will build and run three containers: postgres, graphl backend and the frontend application. The postgres container uses a standard psotgres image from docker hub, the other two will be built on top of the node:12 container. The Dockerfiles in the backend and meal-planner-fredericton-ui directories decribe the builds.

 ### Pre-requisites
 
-Before composing the application you must ensure that Docker is installed and functioning. A quick check is to run `docker version` on the command line to see if you get any output. If you get an error, see the Docker set up for your platfrom.

To enable Docker access for the current user, run the following command in the terminal: `sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER`. It's important to note that after running the command, you need to log out and log back in for the changes to take effect.

-Now that Docker is available, set up the environment for the composed applications.  In the main project folder, where the `docker-compose.yml` file is, create a file named `.env` and add two variables to it. These are a databse password and a token secret. Both should be treated like passwords and should be reasonably unique and random.  This is and example (please don't use these passwords, create your own):
