I was planning to use docker to set up docs locally for one of the issues that I am working on, I went through the README, and it said Running the site locally is simple. Provided you have Docker installed, clone this repo, run make docker, and then visit http://localhost:3000.
But it did not work, and I checked the code in Makefile and was not able to find anything related to docker in it.
Am I missing something, or the work itself is not done yet?

@Lee , we don’t have a make command for Layer5 docs using docker, but it’s mentioned that make docker can be used. Thanks for bringing this up, @Persona. I’ll make sure to raise a PR for this ASAP
By the way, the weekly Websites meeting held every Monday is a great place to explore this further, @Persona, and to potentially get a new target for docker in the docs makefile. @iArchitSharma, perhaps, you’ll add this as an agenda item.
Here now the make docker command will work
root /site;
location / {
index index.html index.htm;
}
, so I went inside the container and check it out, so as default nginx is looking for index.html file but there is no index.html in the /site , this are the only files in the directory
root@ae2ab474b9a5:/# ls -l /site

@Persona Can you please check it now I have fixed the issue also now the port no. for local will be 1313
Ya, it’s working fine now @iArchitSharma. Thanks for the work, helps a lot. 
Just a curious question, how were you able to write such a good Dockerfile so quickly?
I took reference from similar projects
