To get it working properly, just enable Docker Swarm mode with docker swarm init and just run it as it were a regular Docker Compose deployment. So, just docker compose up is enough, don't deploy a swarm stack! (This would cause trouble and extra complexity with networking)
Afterwards, you can disable Swarm again with docker swarm leave -f, if needed.

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

1. Follow standard conventions.
2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.
