### Start Docker containers with build flag

Source: https://docs.recipesage.com/docs/development/getting-started

Use this command to start the Docker containers with the --build flag. It is recommended to pass --build only when dependencies in package.json have been changed, as the dev containers auto-reload otherwise.

```bash
docker compose up --build -d  
```

```markdown
| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 |  

| --- | --- | --- |  

| Row 1 Col 1 | Row 1 Col 2 | Row 1 Col 3 |  

| Row 2 Col 1 | Row 2 Col 2 | Row 2 Col 3 |

### Scaling numbers in instructions with curly braces

Source: https://docs.recipesage.com/docs/tutorials/recipes/edit-recipe

Wrap numbers in curly braces to make them scale with the recipe scale setting. Use formats like '1 1/2' for fractions and '1 to 2' for ranges.

```markdown
Add {500} ml milk, and whisk in {2} eggs.  

Add {1 1/2} packet of vanilla sugar.  

```

--------------------------------

### Scaling with units in instructions

Source: https://docs.recipesage.com/docs/tutorials/recipes/edit-recipe

Include a unit inside the braces to treat the value as a measurement, allowing conversion between metric and imperial when changing units in the scale dialogue.

```markdown
Pour in {236ml} of water.  

Add {2 cups} of flour, then stir in {1-2 tablespoons} of oil.  

```

### Image size options

Source: https://docs.recipesage.com/docs/tutorials/recipes/edit-recipe

Choose an image size by adding :small, :medium, :large, or :xlarge after the image number. Medium is the default and can be omitted.

```markdown
![image:1:small]  

![image:2:large|Finished dish]  

![image:3:xlarge|Hero shot]  

```
