Information

• Please excuse the layout as this was rather a backend task (or at least my take of it). Should you want ReactJS / VueJS / SPA / PWA on this project, please let me know.

• I used my own image, at the moment I did not have a ready PHP-FPM image for 7.0. Thus used what I had; PHP 7.2. However code is suitable for 7.0

• Since picture / upload was optional, I haven't added it. Instead, I spend a little additional time on preparing a better structure

• Controller approach is ADR. I find it cleaner & easier. Symfony 4.x would have a better implementation for ADR.

• Nginx (Docker) is using self-signed SSL certificate. Which is why your browser won't see it as valid. Just confirm the warning to proceed.

• Docker is tested on Linux OS. I don't own other OS so could not check & verify it at this time.
