2. Run Docker Compose to start local the kafka and redis servers and 3 different services docker-compose up

3. send a post request to localhost:3000 with body

       {
           "title": "thenav",
           "description": "Awesome !!This is a cool notification",
           "tags": ["hiTag"],
           "userMail": "mainuser@email.com",

The max count is 10 per day for each title for now.
