The default admin user is admin and the password is admin.

Troubleshooting

If you have problems building or running the Docker container on macOS, you may need to increase the memory allowance for Docker Engine up from the default of 2GB to 3GB or more.

This can be done in the "Advanced" section of Docker for Mac's Preferences UI.
