[Question] How do we install this ? #84

Closed Haz226 closed 3 years ago

Haz226 commented 3 years ago

I'm really sorry, but I don't understand the installation process... I don't find any config.json in the file I downloaded & I don't know what "Expose port 3000 in your Docker run config (e.g. -p 81:3000 maps the machine's port 81 to the container's port 3000)" means... I also don't know how to start the code... Thank's in advance, & sorry for being stupid ^^

Hi, this project is mostly intended for the self-hosted/home server type crowd, where you have a dedicated computer running 24/7.

If you're planning on just running it as an app locally, it's probably a better use of your time to just go to http://epicgames.com/freegames weekly and getting the games manually.
