I want to run the open-source job search platform Freehire on my own system. To start all services and verify the API status using the container management software Docker and the automation tool Make, run the following commands in order: make up # build + start the whole stack in Docker:
# api, web, postgres, meilisearch, redis, s3
curl localhost:8080/health
curl localhost:8080/api/v1/jobs

Repository: https://github.com/strelov1/freehire. Follow the official instructions in the README of this repository for setup and execution.

Before starting, check which OS we are on and if the necessary tools (e.g., Python, Node.js, Git, Docker) are installed. Install any missing ones step-by-step according to this system.

Create a new, empty folder to work in. Do not touch any files outside this folder and do not delete anything. Tell me what you are going to do in one sentence before running each command.

Tell me what I should see on the screen at the end of each step. If an error occurs, I will paste the error message to you exactly as it is, and we will fix it together.
