+## Self-hosting the CAM software with Docker:
+
+### Building the Docker container
+
+To build this yourself, install Docker on your preferred operating system and do the following:
+
+```bash
+cd /path/to/OpenBuilds-CAM/
+docker build -t yourdockercontainername:latest -f Dockerfile .
+# Optional, push to Docker Hub
+docker push yourdockercontainername:latest
+```
+
+### Running the Docker container
+
+To run the docker container, make sure you build it first, then do the following:
+```bash
+# To run the docker container in the foreground:
+docker run yourdockercontainername:latest
+
+# To run it with docker-compose, make sure docker-compose-plugin is installed (or Docker Desktop is installed for Windows)
+cd /path/to/OpenBuilds-CAM/
+docker-compose up -d
+
+# To stop the docker container if running with Docker Compose:
+cd /path/to/OpenBuilds-CAM/
+docker-compose down
+```
+
+### Accessing/Using OpenBuilds-CAM from Docker
+
+The docker container exposes port 80. Make sure your computer has not already reserved port 80, if using the docker container directly.
+
+If using docker-compose, you may wish to change the forwarded port by editing docker-compose.yml. The chosen default port is 9944, which
+forwards to the container's port 80.
+
+After running the container with Docker Compose, you can access it at http://computerYouRanItFrom:9944/
+If you run the docker container directly, you can access it at http://localhost:80/
