+Running as an API
+=================
+
+*Smarker* can be hosted on a server and accessed through an API. A valid docker-compose
+file is in the ``API/`` directory. Since the API docker container accesses the host docker
+daemon, you must pass set the host location of the ``.uploads/`` directory as the ``$UPLOADS_DIR``
+environment variable.
