Local server by Docker

Use this if you want AI Notes on your own computer.

Docker is a tool that runs the app in a box, so you do not install Node by hand.

The app is the website and the API together, on port 2000. Open http://localhost:2000. Do not use port 3000 for this path.

You still need MongoDB. That is the database. Docker Compose does not start it for you.

When Docker builds, it clones GitHub. It does not use other folders on your computer.

Agent Workspace is optional. Do steps 1 to 8 to run the app. Do steps 9 to 12 only if you want the agent desktop.

What you need​

  • Docker Desktop
  • MongoDB on your machine, or a hosted Mongo URL (for example Atlas)

App (required)

  1. Install Docker Desktop
  2. Run MongoDB or use Atlas
  3. Clone the API repo
  4. Set MONGODB_URI
