services:
  api:
    image: mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk
    container_name: "api"
    ports:
      - 5000:5000
    ...
  db:
      image: postgres:10.5
      restart: always
      ...

The compose file defines an application with two services api and db. The api service is configured without a Dockerfile and to run using your local volume in watch mode.
