# A simple MERN stack application
### Create a network for the docker containers
`docker network create demo`
### Build the client
```sh
cd mern/frontend
docker build -t mern-frontend .
```
### Run the client
`docker run --name=frontend --network=demo -d -p 5173:5173 mern-frontend`
### Verify the client is running
Open your browser and type `http://localhost:5173`
### Run the mongodb container
`docker run --network=demo --name mongodb -d -p 27017:27017 -v ~/opt/data:/data/db mongodb:latest`
### Build the server
```sh
cd mern/backend
docker build -t mern-backend .
```
### Run the server
`docker run --name=backend --network=demo -d -p 5050:5050 mern-backend`
## Using Docker Compose
`docker compose up -d`
## Outputs
## Explanation of Porject
### **Project: Three-Tier Web Application Using Docker**
- Built a **three-tier architecture** with **React (frontend), Express.js (backend), and MongoDB (database)**.
- **Containerized** each component using **Dockerfiles** and managed them with **Docker Compose**.
- Created a **Docker network** for **secure communication** between containers.
- Ensured **MongoDB data persistence** using **Docker volumes**.
- Used **Docker Compose** to automate deployment and container orchestration.
- Overcame **networking issues** by using **service names instead of localhost**.
