I am currently exploring containerization technologies and have come across Docker Compose as a tool for managing multi-container Docker applications. To gain a comprehensive understanding.

Dear Danial Vettori,
please find the official documentation here (link). A guide is here (link). And there are many tutorials available (1, 2, 3).
Note that it was docker-compose before, but nowadays it’s a plugin and docker compose when using command line.
You can run multiple (dependent) services/containers on a single host with regular compose.
You can use a compose file with docker stack deploy to deploy services across multiple nodes with Docker Swarm.
Have a nice day!
