 with Docker. The Docker image comes with a web server built-in so that all you
 need to worry about is your config file.
 
+Internally, the Docker image looks for the assets in the `/www/assets` directory
+so you can bind a volume from your host machine to that directory in order to
+modify and persist the configuration files. The web server serves the dashboard
+on port 8080, but using a port binding will let you expose that to whatever
+external port you like.
