  1. Ok.. IMHO please don’t use the word orchestration with docker compose. Orchestration is part of docker swarm. Either I am having wrong def of orchestration or you are.

  2. why yarn watch in the container when copying the source? if you want to use container for development, mount the source as a volume and then watch.

    if just serving the app, use a leaner container with multi stage building.
