For those that want to map a local directory to one within the Docker container, look at the bit around Line 20.

volumes:
       - /Users/cdevroe/Sites/wordpress_themes/cypress/dist:/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/cypress

This maps my local directory to one within WordPress in the container. Every time I save my theme files they are immediately live within WordPress.
