 - **Inbox & Handover:** Provides a real-time chat window where conversations can be monitored and handed over to human agents when necessary.
 
 ## Directory Structure

 - **frontend:** The admin panel built with React/Next.js for managing chatbot configurations and flows.
 - **api:** The backend API built with NestJS and connected to MongoDB for data storage and management.
 - **widget:** A React-based live chat widget that can be embedded into any website to provide real-time interaction.

 - **docker:** A set of Docker Compose files for deploying the entire solution, making it easy to run Hexabot in any environment.
 
 ## Prerequisites

 To ensure Hexabot runs smoothly, you'll need the following:
 
 - **Docker:** We recommend using Docker to start the app since multiple services are required (MongoDB, Redis, Prometheus, etc.). All the necessary Docker Compose files are located in the docker folder.

 ## Installation
 
 1. **Clone the Repository:**
+
 ```bash
 $ git clone https://github.com/hexastack/hexabot.git
 ```
+
 2. **Environment Setup:** To configure the environment variables, use the Makefile at the root folder for initialization:
+
 ```bash
 $ make init
 ```
+
 This will copy the `.env.example` file to `.env` in the `./docker` directory if the file does not already exist.
 
 3. **Running the Application:** Once your environment is set up, you can start the app. Use either of the following commands:
+
 ```bash
 $ make start
 ```
+
 or for development mode:
+
 ```bash
 $ make dev
 ```
+
 **Note:** The first time you run the app, Docker will take some time to download all the required images.

 ## Commands
 
 - `make init` : Copies the .env.example file to .env in the ./docker directory if .env does not exist. This is usually used for initial setup.
-- `make dev` : Starts all configured Docker services in development mode. It first checks the .env file for completeness against .env.example.
-- `make start` : Similar to dev, but explicitly builds the Docker images before starting the services. This target also checks the .env file for required variables.
+- `make dev` : Starts all configured Docker services in development mode. It first checks the .env file for completeness against .env.example and builds the docker images locally.
+- `make start` : Starts all configured Docker services by loading all images from Docker Hub. This target also checks the .env file for required variables.
 - `make stop` : Stops all running Docker services defined in the compose files.
 - `make destroy` : Stops all services and removes all volumes associated with the Docker compose setup, ensuring a clean state.
 - `make check-env` : Checks if the ./docker/.env file exists and contains all the necessary environment variables as defined in ./docker/.env.example. If the file does not exist, it is created from the example. It also lists missing variables if any.
