Description
Steps to Reproduce
- Follow the installation steps in a fresh environment e.g. a virtual machine
Expected Behaviour
The required local dirs should be either automatically created (add to an init script?) or mentioned as prerequisites:
Maciejs-MacBook-Pro:overleaf-toolkit maciejskorski$ ls data
git-bridge mongo overleaf redis
Observed Behaviour
With no data dirs, e.g. in a fresh environment, docker compose fails to start a container.

Research direction
Start by following the installation steps in a fresh environment and inspect the Docker Compose configuration that fails when data directories are absent. Check whether the toolkit has an initialization script or documented prerequisites; done means a fresh setup creates or clearly requests the required directories and docker compose starts successfully.
