```

## Expected result

Listing containers must show one container running and the port mapping as below:
```

$ docker compose ps
NAME                  COMMAND                  SERVICE             STATUS              PORTS
flask-redis-redis-1   "redis-server --load…"   redis               running             0.0.0.0:6379->6379/tcp
flask-redis-web-1     "/bin/sh -c 'python …"   web                 running             0.0.0.0:8000->8000/tcp
```

After the application starts, navigate to `http://localhost:8000` in your web browser or run:
```
$ curl localhost:8000
This webpage has been viewed 2 time(s)
```

## Monitoring Redis keys

Connect to redis database by using ```redis-cli``` command and monitor the keys.
```
redis-cli -p 6379
127.0.0.1:6379> monitor
OK
1646634062.732496 [0 172.21.0.3:33106] "INCRBY" "hits" "1"
1646634062.735669 [0 172.21.0.3:33106] "GET" "hits"
```


Stop and remove the containers
```
$ docker compose down
```

## Use with Docker Development Environments

You can use this sample with the Dev Environments feature of Docker Desktop.

To develop directly on the services inside containers, use the HTTPS Git url of the sample:
