If you want to run the application locally or using Docker in your local machine you can use the following steps:

1- Clone the repository from Github using the following command :

git clone https://github.com/tourdedave/the-internet.git

2- Goto the project folder using the following command:

cd the-internet

3- Install your dependencies using the following command:

bundle install

Note: if you got an error with your ruby version like this one:

You can update the ruby version in the project from the Gemfile to your ruby version and run bundle install again
