+To stop the application, press `Ctrl+C` in the terminal where the application is running. Then, remove the containers with:
 
-#### a. Build the Docker Image

+- **View Logs:** If you encounter issues, check the container logs:
+  ```bash
+  docker-compose logs
+  ```
+- **Rebuild the Image:** If you make changes to the code, rebuild the image:
+  ```bash
+  docker-compose up --build
+  ```
+- **Access the Container Shell:** To debug inside the container:
+  ```bash
+  docker exec -it <container_name> sh
+  ```
 
-## Notes
+### Notes
 
-- Ensure the `Dockerfile` and `docker-compose.yml` are correctly configured.
+- The `docker-compose.yml` file is pre-configured for development.
 - The application is set to bind to `0.0.0.0` for external access.
-- Use `docker logs <container_id>` to debug any issues.
+- File changes on your local machine will automatically reflect in the container (hot-reloading enabled).
