Docker containers are like magic. You can create a wodpress instance in minutes.
Today i create a docker-compose.yml file for a WordPress inance.
Just create the file with the commands bellow and you will get a WordPress site. You will not loose the customizations because they are saved on the host machine.
Create the folders /wp-content and wp-content/uploads bellow the folder that contains docker-compose.yml. I test this instance only on my Mac for development.
