Current Behaviour

Currently, when working on musicblocks using the Docker approach, every code change requires a full image rebuild. This slows down the development cycle significantly.

Desired Behaviour

Introduce a docker-compose.yml to support a hot-reloading environment by mounting the local directory into the container as a volume, so file changes are reflected immediately without rebuilding the image.

Implementation

• Modifying the existing Dockerfile by switching from a multi-step Docker build to a single-step build.
• Adding a new docker-compose.yaml file.

Acceptance Tests

docker compose up ---build(for the first time build) and docker compose up must run the application perfectly as it runs currently, with added functionality of volume mounts for hot reloading.

Environment

• Operating System: Linux Ubuntu 24.04
• Browser: Chrome
• Version of Software/Project: v3.7.1
