# Configuration

## Docker Compose

The root `docker-compose.yml` defines the application container.

Default port mapping:

- Host: `8088`
- Container: `8080`

Change the port mapping in `docker-compose.yml` if host port `8088` is already in use.

## Application settings

The Spring Boot configuration is maintained in:

`backend/src/main/resources/application.yaml`

Review the actual configuration file before changing application properties. This document intentionally does not assume environment variables or settings that may not exist in the current implementation.

## Container permissions and monitoring scope

System metrics available to the application depend on the operating system, container runtime, mounted filesystems, and granted permissions.

A container does not automatically have complete visibility into its host. Docker Desktop on Windows runs Linux containers in a virtualized Linux environment, so reported metrics may describe that environment rather than Windows itself.

Do not expose the monitoring interface to untrusted networks without appropriate access controls and network security.
