I followed this tutorial to get basic app working.
I then containerized the api server and react client and created docker-compose to connect them.
Run make build from root to build containers
Run make run from root to run containers with docker-compose
NOTE: This is a development configuration where the react app is being served by a separate container. We would also want to create a production version where we build a static version of the react site and bundle it with the express server.
