In this video I present the initial setup when developing a Laravel application, but not limited, it can apply to any PHP application within docker.

I showed the steps to keep your containers up-to-date without rebuilding them.
How to add composer packages and lock some specific versions, then how to configure IDE to have the right PHP and PHPUnit interpreters, and in the end how to connect to Docker Xdebug for better debugging.

Happy coding!
