# js-docker-play

This project demonstrates how to Dockerize a simple JavaScript application and serve it using Nginx.

## How It Works

The project involves creating a Docker container for a JavaScript application using the following steps:

### Steps:

  

1. **Create a Project Directory:**

   - First, create a directory for the project files.

   - Inside the directory, add your JavaScript application (e.g., `index.html`, `app.js`).

2. **Create a Dockerfile:**

   - The `Dockerfile` contains instructions to build the Docker image:

   - Start with an `nginx:alpine` base image.

   - Copy the application files into the appropriate directory inside the container (`/usr/share/nginx/html`).

   Example `Dockerfile`:

   ```Dockerfile

   # Use the official Nginx image as base

   FROM nginx:alpine

   # Copy application files into the Nginx HTML directory

   COPY . /usr/share/nginx/html

   

3. **Build the Docker Image:**

- Once the Dockerfile is ready, build the Docker image using the following command:  

`docker build -t js-docker-app .`

4. **Run the Docker Container:**

- Run the container in detached mode, mapping the host port to the container's port 80:

`docker run -d -p 8080:80 --name js-docker-container js-docker-app`

5. **Access the Application:**

Open the browser and visit `http://localhost:8080` to view the JavaScript app served by Nginx.

## Requirements

- Docker installed on your machine

- Basic knowledge of Docker and JavaScript
