 Let's set up the three files that'll get us started. First, our app is going to be running inside a Docker container which contains all of its dependencies. We can define what goes inside that Docker container using a file called `Dockerfile`. It'll contain this to start with:

 If all's well, you should see some PostgreSQL output, and then—after a few seconds—the familiar refrain:
