You can then start the app via the terminal after adding cargo's bin directory to your PATH variable
```sh
lemoa
```

# Development
Clone the repository and run
```sh
cargo run
```

# Build inside Docker
Be sure you to replace `$PATH_TO_REPO` with the path to this cloned repo on your filesystem.
```
sudo docker build --no-cache . -t lemoa:latest
sudo docker run -v $PATH_TO_REPO:/home/lemoa/lemoa_volume -it lemoa:latest bash
cd lemoa_volume/
cargo build
```
The binary will also be available on your host system since $PATH_TO_REPO is mounted as a shared volume between docker and host.
