which allows you to access neo4j through your browser at [http://localhost:7474](http://localhost:7474).

This binds two ports (`7474` and `7687`) for HTTP and Bolt access to the Neo4j API. A volume is bound to `/data` to allow the database to be persisted outside the container.

By default, this requires you to login with `neo4j/neo4j` and change the password. You can, for development purposes, disable authentication by passing `--env=NEO4J_AUTH=none` to docker run.
Once running, you can use the Neo4j Aura console which includes graph tools for visualizations, data exploration, and monitoring for free. No subscription is required. Simply create a self-managed instance and connect to http://localhost:7474. Alternatively, you can use the Neo4j Browser, a web-based user interface for interacting with Neo4j that is included with the Neo4j installation. To access the Neo4j Browser, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:7474.

Is it intentional that both URLs in this paragraph are to the same place? The text seems to describe two different things, but maybe I'm just misreading it? 🤔

Do you mean maybe "connect it to http://localhost:7474" ? (to make it clear you mean the instance in Aura, not the local user as in the next bit)


Your default credentials are neo4j/neo4j. You will be prompted to change the password upon first login. For development purposes, you can disable authentication by passing `--env=NEO4J_AUTH=none` to docker run.
