How can I use Docker Compose with Python?

You can use Docker Compose to define and run multi-container Docker applications. For Python, you typically create a docker-compose.yml file that specifies your Python service and any dependencies.

What should I include in the docker-compose.yml file?

In your docker-compose.yml, you should define the version, services, and any necessary configurations like ports, volumes, and environment variables.

Can you give me an example of a simple docker-compose.yml for a Flask app?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

version: '3'
services:
  web:
    image: flask:latest
    build: .
    ports:
      - "5000:5000"
    volumes:
      - .:/code
    environment:
      - FLASK_ENV=development
