Part 1: Docker Compose 101

This part will introduce us to Docker Compose and how it works behind the scenes. We will familiarize ourselves with Compose by developing and deploying a set of applications using Compose. We will also find out how Docker concepts that we use daily (such as networking and volumes) map to Compose. Lastly, we will have an overview of the available Compose commands and familiarize ourselves with executing them.

The following chapters will be covered under this section:

• Chapter 1, Introduction to Docker Compose
• Chapter 2, Running the First Application Using Compose
