As a part of solution, you can open your package.js and add 3 new commands/scripts :

"scripts": {    

"docker-build-and-run": "docker build -t image-dev-local . && docker run -p 3001:3001 --name container-dev-local image-dev-local",
"docker-stop-and-clear": "(docker stop container-dev-local || true) && (docker rm container-dev-local || true)",
"docker-run": "npm run docker-stop-and-clear && npm run docker-build-and-run"

}

and just simply run in the terminal :

npm run docker-run

to up your app on 3001 port in docker and have fun. Every next run will clear previous and build/run again.

To stop and delete it, just run :

npm run docker-stop-and-clear
