+| Technology | How we use it |
+| --- | --- |
+| Flask application | Provides the web app's CRUD interface for adding, viewing, editing, and deleting user records. |
+| SQLite3 | Stores the application's user records in a lightweight database. |
+| Pytest | Runs the automated tests for the application. |
+| Ruff | Lints the Python code to catch style and common code issues. |
+| Docker | Packages the application and its dependencies into an image that can be run locally or deployed. |
+| GitHub Actions | Automates code-quality checks, tests, Docker image builds, and deployment workflows. |
+| Terraform | Defines and manages the Google Cloud resources used by the application as code. |
+| Google Cloud Run | Hosts the deployed containerized application. |

+## If you'd rather run it with Docker
+
+From the repository root, build a local image:
+
+```bash
+docker build -t flask-crud-app .
+```
+
+Start a container from that image:
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -p 8000:8000 -v app_data:/app/instance flask-crud-app
+```
+
+Open `http://localhost:8000/` in your browser. Press `Ctrl+C` to stop the container. The named `app_data` volume keeps the SQLite database when the container is removed.
+
+Alternatively, use Docker Compose to build and start the application:
+
+```bash
+docker compose up --build
+```
+
+Then open `http://localhost:8000/`. Stop the application with `Ctrl+C`; run `docker compose down` to remove the container while keeping the database volume.
