## Expected result
Listing containers must show one container running and the port mapping as below:
```
$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES

After the application starts, navigate to `http://localhost:8000` in your web browser:
Stop and remove the containers
```
$ docker compose down
```
