This commit introduces significant improvements to the developer experience for setting up and running the Prebid Server Java walkthrough.

Key enhancements include:

  1. Docker Support: A Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml have been added to allow for a fully containerized setup. This eliminates the need for local Java and Maven installations and ensures a consistent environment.

  2. Automated Setup Script: A setup.sh script has been created to automate the entire manual setup process, from installing dependencies with sdkman to building and running the server.

  3. Improved Documentation: The README.md has been completely overhauled with a more professional structure, a table of contents, and detailed instructions for the new setup methods (Manual, Automated, and Docker). It also includes a brief introduction to Prebid Server for new users.

These changes make the project more accessible, easier to use, and more innovative, directly addressing the user's request to make it "better, prettier, and more innovative."

Pull Request Overview

This PR enhances the developer experience for setting up Prebid Server Java by introducing three different setup methods: manual, automated, and Docker-based approaches. The changes aim to make the project more accessible and eliminate environment-specific setup issues.

Key changes include:

  • Added Docker containerization with Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml for isolated environment setup
  • Created an automated setup script (setup.sh) that handles dependency installation and server deployment
  • Completely restructured the README.md with professional formatting, table of contents, and comprehensive instructions for all setup methods

Using 0.0.0.0 as the host in the health check URL is non-standard. Consider using localhost or 127.0.0.1 instead, which is more conventional for local server health checks.

Suggested change
if curl -s 'http://0.0.0.0:8080/status' > /dev/null; then
if curl -s 'http://localhost:8080/status' > /dev/null; then

The background process (&) is started without capturing its PID or providing a way to stop it cleanly. Consider storing the PID in a variable or file for later cleanup, or provide instructions for users on how to stop the server.

Once the server is running, you can test its status by sending a request to the `/status` endpoint:

```bash
curl 'http://0.0.0.0:8080/status'

Using 0.0.0.0 in user-facing documentation is inconsistent with standard practices. Use localhost instead for better clarity and consistency with typical local development workflows.
