To run the project run these 5 commands (Laravel must be installed)
This is for docker and mac:
docker compose up
composer install
php artisan migrate --seed
php artisan key:generate
php artisan serve
be sure to adjust the .env file in the root for Windows (with XAMPP) - the compose.yaml should also probably be adjusted in that case
see comments for optimal settings
for Linux (not tested) the Mac commands probably work the same
