docker-compose is no magic, it only maps a YAML file to docker's command arguments. While I think docker-compose is useful in some cases, I strongly advise to not use it at first so you understand how docker actually works.

Once you understand how docker works, using the YAML file can become useful to lighten your load.

agreed, I used a bash script based on glowmachine github repo[1], but switching to docker-compose made everything much easier - as long as you have the knowledge of the docker cli.
