Improve documentation for the development section
Remove duplication for the Docker/Docker-Compose instructions.

Mention that Docker/Docker-Compose is the recommended approach to run
Mobilizon.

Be clear about accessing `localhost:4000` only once the containers are fully
built and launched.

# Development
Clone the repository:
```bash
# With HTTPS
git clone https://framagit.org/framasoft/mobilizon && cd mobilizon
# With SSH
git clone git@framagit.org:framasoft/mobilizon.git && cd mobilizon
```
Run Mobilizon:
* with Docker and Docker-Compose (**Recommended**)
* without Docker and Docker-Compose (This involves more work on your part, use Docker and Docker-Compose if you can)
## With Docker and Docker-Compose
* Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/#supported-platforms) and [Docker-Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) for your system.
* Run `make start` to build, then launch a database container and an API container.
* Follow the progress of the build with `docker-compose logs -f`.
* Access `localhost:4000` in your browser once the containers are fully built and launched.
## Without Docker and Docker-Compose
* Install dependencies:
* Elixir (and Erlang) by following the instructions at [https://elixir-lang.github.io/install.html](https://elixir-lang.github.io/install.html)
* [PostgreSQL]() with PostGIS
* Install NodeJS (we guarantee support for the latest LTS and later) ![](https://img.shields.io/badge/node-%3E%3D%2010.0+-brightgreen.svg)
* Start services:
* Start postgres
* Setup services:
* Make sure the postgis extension is installed on your system.
* Create a postgres user with database creation capabilities, using the
following: `createuser -d -P mobilizon` and set `mobilizon` as the password.
* Install packages
* Fetch backend Elixir dependencies with `mix deps.get`.
* Go into the `cd js` directory, `yarn install` and then back `cd ../`
* Setup
* Create your database with `mix ecto.create`.
* Create the postgis extension on the database with a postgres user that has
superuser capabilities: `psql mobilizon_dev`
``` create extension if not exists postgis; ```
* Run migrations: `mix ecto.migrate`.
* Start Phoenix endpoint with `mix phx.server`. The client development server will also automatically be launched and will reload on file change.
Now you can visit [`localhost:4000`](http://localhost:4000) in your browser
and see the website (server *and* client) in action.
