Yesterday lunchtime, while chatting with a friend, he highlighted a simple fact: explain the easiest way in the world to start a Joomla project with Docker.
The aim is to hop, hop, copy/paste a file, hop, Joomla is launched and you can start playing with the site.
Let's take a look; not in detail, but right to the point.
You've a dockerized application and one of its container is a MariaDB, MySQL or PostgreSQL service.
Your need is to start a web database management interface like Adminer, pgadmin or phpmyadmin and be able to access your tables and your records.
This can be done in just one command line instruction.
In this article, we will learn how to use Docker to install Joomla on your localhost and start a new website in seconds (don't want to wait? Jump to the "Final composer.yaml" chapter).
I will use a Linux console (I'm running WSL on my Windows computer and I have chosen Ubuntu for my distribution) but since Docker can also be used on Windows, you can perfectly run, exactly, the same commands in an MS-DOS / Powershell console.
