Timezone strings: List of tz database time zones (TZ identifier column).

The default port is 5050. You can change it to 80 to avoid typing the port in the address, or to any other free port if 5050 is already in use - update the port in docker-compose.yml accordingly.

After you login at http://localhost:5050/login you can use the same browser tab to access:

• logs: http://localhost:5050/watchdog
• OpenAPI json: http://localhost:5050/openapi/v1.json
• OpenAPI UI: http://localhost:5050/scalar/v1
