+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) installed (or use GitHub Codespaces)
+- (Optional) [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) with the Dev Containers extension
+
+### Running Odoo with Docker
+
+1. **Clone this repository:**
+   ```sh
+   git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/ssh-git-github.com-odoo-odoo.git-8.0.git
+   cd ssh-git-github.com-odoo-odoo.git-8.0
+   ```
+
+2. **Start Odoo and PostgreSQL using Docker Compose:**
+   ```sh
+   docker-compose up
+   ```
+
+3. **Access Odoo in your browser:**
+   - Go to [http://localhost:8069](http://localhost:8069) (or use the forwarded port in Codespaces).
+
+4. **Create a new database:**
+   - Master password: `admin` (default)
+   - Choose a database name and admin password
+
+5. **Update the Apps list and install the module:**
+   - Go to **Settings > Modules > Update Modules List**
+   - Search for "Records Management" in the Apps menu and click **Install**
+
+---
+
+## Development
+
+- All custom code is in the `records_management` module.
+- To make changes, edit the Python or XML files, then restart Odoo and update the module.
+- Use the Docker CLI (`docker`) in your dev container terminal to manage containers.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Odoo not starting?**  
+  Check the logs in your terminal for errors.
+- **Module not visible?**  
+  Make sure you updated the Apps list and removed the "Apps" filter in the Apps menu.
+- **Port 8069 not accessible?**  
+  Ensure Docker is running and the port is not blocked by a firewall.
