+#### Automation of setup
 - **Automated Installation**: `install.sh` will automate optional venv and requirements installation.
 - **Launch Script**: `launch.sh` will activate and launch the app in the venv
 
 #### Docker Installation
-If you prefer to use Docker, follow these steps:
-
-1. Ensure your serial port is properly shared.
-2. Build the Docker image:
-    ```sh
-    cd meshing-around
-    docker build -t meshing-around .
-    ```
-3. Run the Docker container:
-    ```sh
-    docker run --rm -it --device=/dev/ttyUSB0 meshing-around
-    ```
+If you prefer to use [Docker](script/docker/README.md)
 
 #### Custom Install

+This is not a full turnkey setup for Docker yet but gets you most of the way there!
+
+## Setup New Image
+`docker build -t meshing-around .`
+
+## Ollama Image with compose
+still a WIP
+`docker compose up -d`
+
+## Edit the config.ini in the docker
+To edit the config.ini in the docker you can
+`docker run -it --entrypoint /bin/bash meshing-around -c "nano /app/config.ini"`
+
+## other info
+1. Ensure your serial port is properly shared.
+2. Run the Docker container:
+    ```sh
+    docker run --rm -it --device=/dev/ttyUSB0 meshing-around
+    ```
