4. Start coding your theme in theme folder.

More details

• Only your theme folder is mapped, this covers most common wordpress projects. If you want map more folder, just added in docker-compose.yml file, like:

volumes:
    - ./theme:/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/mytheme
    - ./plugins:/var/www/html/wp-content/plugins

• You can access Adminer in http://localhost:8888.

• This container doesn't have restart: always config purposely, just to have more control what sites (containers) I am working in the moment. You can add in docker-compose.yml if you want.

• If you have to run multiple wordpress sites (containers) in the same time, make sure you change the ports mapped in docker-compose.yml, use a different port for each site (dont forget Adminer's ports)

• If you have trouble with permission in theme folder (or another folder that you are mapped) in linux or WSL, use the command: sudo chown your_user ./theme,
