Probably the fastest way to start the project in a local environment is via Docker. Once we have downloaded the sources code from the public repository or product page, all we need is to type a single line in the terminal.

Step #1 - Clone/download sources

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/django-soft-ui-dashboard.git
$ cd django-soft-ui-dashboard 

Step #2 - Start in Docker

$ docker-compose up --build  

Once all the above commands are executed, we should be able to access the app in the browser, register new users, and authenticate.
