Or if you want to use the develop branch that is in a work-in-progress state please use:
docker run -d -p 3001:3001 --env-file=your-env-file standardnotes/web:latest
You can then access the app at http://localhost:3001 (please check Docker container logs if the server has started already and is listening on connections).
