What does HackerNews think of compose?
Define and run multi-container applications with Docker
Compose, "the binary" [1]. It used to be "just" a Python helper script that called Docker, used to deploy multiple containers in a common network easily. It was rewrited in Go, and now it's kind of a plugin for Docker. I think it's strongly tied to Docker primitives, and wouldn't be that easy to modify it to work on different container orchestrators.
But there's also Compose "the file format" [2]. There are tools, like Kompose[3], that understand the Compose format, and can use it to deploy in Kubernetes.

Is this the repository or is there another one?
Someone in #tcl on Freenode suggested that this set of essays would be a good resource for exploring some of the new/er features in Tcl.
I'm experimenting with using Tcl as a basis for rapid prototyping and testing[4] of services and service compositions built with docker and docker-compose[5].
It would be awesome if O'Reilly would consider making Exploring Expect[1] an Open Book[3] – it's an "oldie but goodie"!
