Running PostgreSQL with Docker for Local Dev

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

This guide shows how to run PostgreSQL in Docker for local development, using quick one-off containers or docker-compose for persistent setups. It covers essential commands, volume mounting for data persistence, and common pitfalls like port conflicts. The approach keeps host machines clean while supporting multiple projects with different database versions.

Meridian48 take
A practical tutorial, but nothing new for experienced developers; Docker-based Postgres is standard practice.
