[milanmlft]

Definition of Done / Acceptance Criteria

Once we have a working container for the app (#26), we should add a docker-compose.yml file that spins up the Shiny app container and configures the necessary environment variables to run the app on the GAE.

• Set up docker-compose.yml
• Add .env file to configure the necessary environment variables
• .env should be added to .gitignore to avoid exposing secrets
• Have a .env.sample file that acts like a template

Testing

💭 If we want to be fancy, could have a self-hosted GHA runner on the GAE that automatically redeploys the app when a new release is created. Though not sure i self-hosted runners are an option on GAE.
