Step 1: Install Git

DockSTARTer requires Git to be installed on your system. To install Git, open the terminal and run the following command:

Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the DockSTARTer directory and run the main.sh script with sudo privileges:

cd DockSTARTer
sudo ./main.sh

This will start the installation process. The script will ask you a series of questions about your setup, such as which apps you want to install and what domain name you will use. Answer the questions as per your requirement.

Step 4: Start the Docker Containers

After the installation is complete, start the docker containers by running the following command:

docker-compose up -d

This will start all the applications you have installed via DockSTARTer.

Step 5: Access the Applications

Now that the Docker containers are running, you can access the applications through your web browser. To do so, go to http://<your-ip-address> in your browser. Replace <your-ip-address> with the IP address of your server.
