when i paste command in cmd it shows downloading and after 2 downloads left it asks about ports,hostname etc but it doesn't show appwrite installed successfully as i see in youtube tutirials when i run container and go to localhost in browser it doesn't open appwrite

TL;DR
User is experiencing issues with connecting to localhost after attempting to install Appwrite. The installation process took a long time and the user entered default ports and a password. The user is requesting a tutorial with detailed steps. The user mentions that running the command `docker run ...` does not show Appwrite installed successfully. The user is unable to access Appwrite on localhost. Possible solution: - Check if the command `docker run ...` finished running without any errors. - Ensure that the specified ports, hostname, and password during installation are correct. - Verify if the necessary components, such as Docker, are installed and functioning properly.

Well the first-time install can take a little but of time.

After you enter all the details, it should show a command like docker run .... in the terminal, which is basically starting up the containers. Did this command finish?

Did you finish the installation by specifying the ports and whatnot?
