+# Payroll Engine Docker Stack
+
+This document describes how to set up and run the Payroll Engine stack using Docker.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Docker
+- Docker Compose
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### 1. Environment Configuration
+
+The application uses a `.env` file to manage the database password. This file must be created in the same directory as the `docker-compose.yml` file (`PayrollEngine/`).
+
+Create a file named `.env` with the following content:
+
+```
+# Default database password
+# Please change this to a strong password in your local environment
+DB_PASSWORD=YourStrong!Password123
+```
+
+**Important:** Replace `YourStrong!Password123` with a secure password of your choice.
+
+### 2. Build and Run the Stack
+
+To build and start all the services, run the following command from the `PayrollEngine/` directory:
+
+```sh
+docker-compose up --build
+```
+
+This command will:
+- Build the Docker images for the `backend-api`, `webapp`, and `db-init` services.
+- Start all the services in the correct order.
+- Initialize the database.
+
+### 3. Accessing the Applications
+
+Once the stack is running, you can access the following services:
+
+- **PayrollEngine WebApp**: `http://localhost:8081`
+- **PayrollEngine Backend API**: `http://localhost:5001` (HTTP) or `https://localhost:5002` (HTTPS)
+- **SQL Server Database**: Connect using a client on `localhost:1433` with the `sa` user and the password you defined in the `.env` file.
+
+### 4. Stopping the Stack
+
+To stop the services, press `Ctrl+C` in the terminal where `docker-compose up` is running.
+
+To stop and remove the containers, run:
+
+```sh
+docker-compose down
+```
+
+To remove the database volume as well, run:
+```sh
+docker-compose down -v
+```

Subject: [PATCH 03/10] feat: Improve Docker stack configuration and database
 initialization

- Replace custom DbQuery tool with standard sqlcmd for database initialization
- Use mcr.microsoft.com/mssql-tools image for more reliable db-init service
- Configure services to use HTTP only (remove HTTPS to avoid certificate issues)
- Add restart policy for webapp service
- Add .env file with database password configuration
- Improve service dependencies and startup order
