To run this repo locally using docker-compose to stand up postgres:

1. Obtain a Spotify web API client ID and client secret.
2. Obtain a GitHub API client ID and client secret.
3. Create a .env file and populate it with (at the minimum) these variables:

   BASE_URL=https://your-url.example.com
   SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=...
   SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=...
   GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=...
   GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=...
   COOKIE_SECRET=some-long-random-string
   DB_URL=postgres://postgres:somepassword@postgres
   POSTGRES_PASSWORD=somepassword
   

   See config.ts for other available environment variables.
4. Now, you should be able to use docker-compose up to begin file-watching and auto-rebuilding the React frontend and Node.js backend. By default, it will listen on port 4000.
