        @kusselin remember, a container is a ‘system’
        with its own IP address different than than the container hosting system (typically 172.xx.yy.zz)

        also, localhost means ONLY apps INSIDE this same ‘system’, can access… so that means a browser running IN the container… oops… not possible

        SO, you have to change the MM config.js to allow apps OUTSIDE the container to access the MM app
        and THEN on the container setup , map the container MM port to some host port … (so u can access from another pc, phone, tablet, outside the container hosting system )

        address:“0.0.0.0”.
        ipWhitelist:[],

        you didn’t have to reinstall mm… one install runs three ways
        full (ui on same ‘system’), npm start
        server (ui on some OTHER system (have to change config) npm run server
        client (just the UI part), npm run client

            @kusselin yes, to help keep this organized for you

            think of a container as a pi/nuc/laptop/extra machine with no display, running in text mode
            and the only way to get to it is thru a proxy machine (your container host)

            and then some other machine, laptop, phone, tablet that wants to display info…

            so other machine, phone, tablet connects to proxy, who forwards request to pi, and returns response back.
            the proxy doesnt DO anything but transport the info .

                  @kusselin well that becomes much more troublesome…

                  the container doesn’t have display, so u can’t force it there
                  also, server mode doesn’t know orientation of display system .

                  so this would typically be done on system w browser. full system in portrait or landscape.

                  I don’t know how you would do it just for one browser/tab…

                      @kusselin if u are running container on pi, AND displaying on pi, then it’s the same. if u are running container on windows, displaying on pi, it’s the same.

                      if displaying on windows, then have to turn windows portrait mode
