+# Todo App Docker Instructions
+
+## Docker Hub Repository
+
+https://hub.docker.com/r/dimonalek/todoapp
+
+## Build the image
+
+From the project root (`devops_todolist`):
+
+```powershell
+docker build -t dimonalek/todoapp:1.0.0 .
+```
+
+## Tag and push image to Docker Hub
+
+1. Log in to Docker Hub:
+
+```powershell
+docker login
+```
+
+2. Push the image:
+
+```powershell
+docker push dimonalek/todoapp:1.0.0
+```
+
+## Run the container
+
+```powershell
+docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 dimonalek/todoapp:1.0.0
+```
+
+If you want to run your local image (without pull), use:
+
+```powershell
+docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 todoapp
+```
+
+## Access in browser
+
+After the container starts, open:
+
+http://localhost:8080/
+
+API endpoint:
+
+http://localhost:8080/api/
+
+## Note on database migrations
+
+The `Dockerfile` runs `python manage.py migrate` during the image build stage using the bundled SQLite database. If you switch to a remote database (e.g., PostgreSQL), the build-time migration will fail because the database is not reachable at build time. In that case, remove the `RUN python manage.py migrate` line from the `Dockerfile` and run migrations at container startup instead — for example by overriding the container command:
+
+```powershell
+docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 dimonalek/todoapp:1.0.0 sh -c "python manage.py migrate && python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8080"
+```
