+
+### The Docker usage is simply based on docker-compose:
+
+*To build the container*
+
+```
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.yaml up --build
+```
+It should be up now.
+
+*To login to the container(if you want)*
+
+```
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.yaml exec /bin/bash
+```
+
+
+> Note: if you updated/edited the code just run the build command again to get the new changes.
