improve Docker instructions #1286
Description
right now the README just says "run docker-compose up", but I found that on my MacOS 10.14 laptop, I needed to do the following:
brew cask install VirtualBox dockerbrew install docker-machine docker-composedocker-machine starteval $(docker-machine env)docker compose up
and then later, if I want to shut it down,
docker-machine stop
this is probably routine stuff for those familiar with Docker, but some of us are about as ignorant of Docker as we are of Ruby and Bundler :-)
the above commands seemed to work, and what I saw in my terminal window ended with:
jekyll_1 | Configuration file: /site/_config.yml
jekyll_1 | Source: /site
jekyll_1 | Destination: /site/_site
jekyll_1 | Incremental build: disabled. Enable with --incremental
jekyll_1 | Generating...
jekyll_1 | done in 29.876 seconds.
jekyll_1 | Auto-regeneration: enabled for '/site'
jekyll_1 | Server address: http://0.0.0.0:4000
the readme says the site will be served at http://localhost:8080, but it isn't. I'm not sure why, perhaps it's because I'm on MacOS and not on Linux (except via VirtualBox)? how do I view the site? (visiting http://0.0.0.0:4000 doesn't work either)

http://0.0.0.0:4000- that's inside containerwhich bind to out world with
8080port,VirtualBox may have own restriction, (also i think, in your case the result is available only inside VirtualBox).
about instructions: maybe better just link to https://docs.docker.com/install/ , and note about if you want to use site with docker you need install docker first

hmm, perhaps I should be using Docker Desktop for Mac https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/docker-toolbox/ in order to leave VirtualBox out of it
