Installation
The starium.dev codebase has been updated to support docker. There is some fairly straightforward setup required to get it running.
Some of the benefits of this setup include: no more manual database imports, a simplified development environment, and your development environment will now more closely match the environment that is running on the server.
Please Note: There is an additional step required if you are using Windows 10 Home vs Windows 10 Pro.
