+# Here the instructions define your application as a service called "server".
+# This service is built from the Dockerfile in the current directory.
+# You can add other services your application may depend on here, such as a
+# database or a cache. For examples, see the Awesome Compose repository:

+# The commented out section below is an example of how to define a PostgreSQL
+# database that your application can use. `depends_on` tells Docker Compose to
+# start the database before your application. The `db-data` volume persists the
+# database data between container restarts. The `db-password` secret is used
+# to set the database password. You must create `db/password.txt` and add
+# a password of your choosing to it before running `docker compose up`.
