### Building and Running the Containers
To spin up the Docker containers, run the following command:
`docker-compose up --build`
This command will build and start the following services:
- MySQL database
running on http://localhost:3306/
- MinIO storage service
running on http://localhost:9000/
- Vue.js frontend
running on http://localhost:5173/
- Node.js backend
running on http://localhost:3000/
Once the Docker containers have been built, you can run them without rebuilding by using the following command:
`docker-compose up`
### Stopping and Removing Containers
To stop and remove the Docker containers, use the following command:
` docker-compose down `
