<p>Docker has revolutionized the way we develop, package, and deploy applications. It provides an easy way to create isolated, consistent, and scalable development environments. In this comprehensive guide, we&rsquo;ll walk through the process of building a highly complex Docker development environment for a PHP-based full-stack web application. This setup includes a PHP backend, a React frontend, MySQL as the database, Nginx as a reverse proxy, and Redis for caching.</p> <h1>Prerequisites</h1> <p>Before we get started, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed on your system:</p> <ol> <li>Docker: Download and install Docker from&nbsp;<a href="https://www.docker.com/get-started" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Docker&rsquo;s official website</a>.</li> <li>Docker Compose: If you haven&rsquo;t installed Docker Compose yet, you can get it from&nbsp;<a href="https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>.</li> </ol> <h1>Project Structure</h1> <p>Let&rsquo;s start by organizing our project structure.
