docker-compose

Docker, docker-compose, and Dockerfile syntax is confusing with numerous edge cases. Image sizes grow to problematic sizes unless carefully constructed, and Docker enforces restrictions on multi-line RUN commands that lack clear documentation on resolution.

Docker documentation and syntax make it difficult to distinguish between bind mounts and volumes. Declaring a volumes entry in docker-compose.yml provides no clear indication whether a volume or bind mount is being created, leading to configuration confusion.
