Hey @devansh016 , from README i can see that we'll have to set up environment variables! Would we have to create an .env file for that?
I am a bit caught up at this point, but was able to setup the application locally

Hey @devansh016 , the docker file has been created.
The main issue I am facing right now is that, when we run the app, a new file is being created called newsArticles.txt.
Now, when we run the docker container for the same, this new file is not being recognised by the container or not being created!

Here is the error log:

Have to search a bit on this, but would like to know your thoughts as well

Hey @devansh016 , i was able to solve this particular issue & now the app is running on the container!

Although, the content isn't visible on the site & I believe thats an issue with the API.

I can make a PR for the dockerfile and then maybe we can work on this api issue
