And visit http://localhost:8080

For Linux users

Add a /etc/hosts entry like the following:

127.0.0.2 ytd.com

Then you add an iptables rule to redirect the traffic incoming into 127.0.0.2:8080 to 127.0.0.1:80:

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d 127.0.0.2 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080

Now you can access the app in your browser through http://ytd.com or
in your network through http://<your IP>:8080 address

## Changes will reload the server that is running inside Docker container.

# In another shell session:
export PORT=8080
