+Run the complete stack with PostgreSQL and MinIO:
+
+```bash
+# Build and start all services
+docker-compose up --build
+
+# Or run in detached mode
+docker-compose up -d --build

+- **PostgreSQL**: localhost:5433
+- **MinIO Console**: http://localhost:9101 (credentials: minioadmin/minioadmin)
+- **MinIO API**: http://localhost:9100

+The Docker setup automatically:
+- Uses PostgreSQL instead of SQLite
+- Uses MinIO for S3-compatible object storage
+- Creates the required storage bucket

 ### Database
 
-The application uses SQLite by default (`meal-planner.db`). To migrate to PostgreSQL:
+The application uses:
+- **SQLite** for local development (`meal-planner.db` file)
+- **PostgreSQL** when running via Docker Compose
 
-1. Install the PostgreSQL adapter: `pnpm add @payloadcms/db-postgres`
-2. Update `payload.config.ts`:
-   ```typescript
-   import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
+The configuration automatically switches based on the `DATABASE_URI` environment variable:
+- If `DATABASE_URI` is set → PostgreSQL
+- If `DATABASE_URI` is empty → SQLite
 
-   db: postgresAdapter({
-     pool: { connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URI }
-   }),
-   ```
-3. Set `DATABASE_URI` in `.env`
+### Storage
+
+The application uses:
+- **Local filesystem** for local development
+- **MinIO (S3-compatible)** when running via Docker Compose
+
+The configuration automatically switches based on the `MINIO_ENDPOINT` environment variable.
