This document introduces Docker Compose, which allows defining and running multi-container Docker applications. It discusses that Docker Compose uses a YAML file to configure and run multi-service Docker apps. The 3 steps are to define services in a Dockerfile, define the app configuration in a Compose file, and run the containers with a single command. It also covers topics like networking, environment variables, and installing Docker Compose. Hands-on labs are provided to learn Compose through examples like WordPress.
