This test uses php, but it could just be anything
docker-compose up -d
the application directory gets mounted as a volume, so you can just develop
docker build application -t <my-application-name>
You then can push to a docker registry and with a tool like watchtower make the final deployment to production / staging / whatever
I guess it would be the best - and the documentation does this in some examples - to run the production in docker-compose with containrrr/watchtower being one part of the composition
