No not at all, but the rails code is just the web interface
and it has nothing to do with any map rendering.

The default tile layers are those from the main OSM tile service
and various third party services, all of which render tiles based
on the main database derived from www.openstreetmap.org.

Well you don't have a "local map" currently, you have a local database
of geodata.

For that you would need to setup your own render stack and tile
server and change the code in this repository to point at your
tile server instead of tile.openstreetmap.org.

I'm not familiar with the docker setup but that probably means you
didn't configure the keys properly in the site settings.

Don't worry about it - once you fix the previous issue this
one should go away I think.

No.
