Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll use Docker, the Docker compose command line, and Bootstrap to construct an easy-to-use UI for your search engine. You’ll work to set up a single node Elasticsearch cluster, before putting together your Bootstrap UI, and then create a customized Docker image of the Flask API that serves your transformers model and frontend.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book and video resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books and videos for 90 days.
