You can clone the updated application from GitHub and, assuming that you have Docker and Docker Compose installed, run it using the following simple commands:
git clone https://github.com/kavisuresh/example-voting-app.git
cd example-voting-app
docker-compose upThe following video gives an introduction to the example voting application and how it can be run using Docker Compose:
The following video talks about Docker Datacenter configuration and how the application can be run in Docker Datacenter using Docker Compose:
