Parent folder

Create a parent folder that will contain your Mage project code:

mkdir data_monorepo

Change directory into the parent folder:

cd data_monorepo

Create a Dockerfile

Create an empty Dockerfile:

echo "" > Dockerfile

Paste the contents from this Dockerfile into the Dockerfile you just created.

Paste the following contents into the .gitignore file you just created:

.mage_temp_profiles
.preferences.yaml
.variables/
__pycache__/
