+
+In this project, you will write a basic Dockerfile to create a Docker image. When this Docker image is run, it should print "Hello, Captain!" to the console before exiting.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- The Dockerfile should be named `Dockerfile`.
+- The Dockerfile should be in the root directory of the project.
+- The base image should be `alpine:latest`.
+- The Dockerfile should contain a single instruction to print "Hello, Captain!" to the console before exiting.
+
+
+You can learn more about writing a Dockerfile [here](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/).
+
+<hr />
+
+If you are looking to build a more advanced version of this project, you can consider adding the ability to pass your name to the Docker image as an argument, and have the Docker image print "Hello, [your name]!" instead of "Hello, Captain!".

+
+In this project, you will build a tool to archive logs on a set schedule by compressing them and storing them in a new directory, this is especcially useful for removing old logs and keeping the system clean while maintaining the logs in a compressed format for future reference. This project will help you practice your programming skills, including working with files and directories, and building a simple cli tool.
+
+The most common location for logs on a unix based system is `/var/log`.
+
+## Requirements
+
+The tool should run from the command line, accept the log directory as an argument, compress the logs, and store them in a new directory. The user should be able to:
+
+- Provide the log directory as an argument when running the tool.
+  ```bash
+  log-archive <log-directory>
+  ```
+- The tool should compress the logs in a tar.gz file and store them in a new directory.
+- The tool should log the date and time of the archive to a file.
+  ```bash
+  logs_archive_20240816_100648.tar.gz
+  ```
+
+You can learn more about the `tar` command [here](https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/tar.html).
+
+<hr />
+
+If you are looking to build a more advanced version of this project, you can consider adding functionality to the tool like emailing the user updates on the archive, or sending the archive to a remote server or cloud storage.
