# Meals Made Easy API ## Getting Started First, create a `.env` file with the following environment variables: - `MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=` - `MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=` - `MYSQL_PASSWORD=` Then run `docker compose up -d --build`. The `--build` option can be omitted if you have already built the `api` from `Dockerfile`. Once Docker Compose has finished starting everything, navigate to `http://localhost:8080/greeting`. You should see a simple "Hello, World!" greeting. **N.b.: the current configuration of the app is to use the `dev` Spring-Boot profile, which seeds the app with some simple recipes whose sources are located in the `dev-data` directory.**
