You are mapping port 80 to 8080 here: docker run -p 80:8080 <tagName>/img, so to access your app just use the address: 'localhost:80' (or you can ommit the port since 80 is the default port used in browsers)

While Kimi Marie is totally correct, the nginx Dockerfile provides port 80 inside the container. So I assume you would like to map the container's port 80 to your local port 8080. You just need to flip the params like

docker run -p 8080:80 <tagName>/img
