Service Description

In the above file, we have three services, each of which describe a "process" or "container". A little bit about each service:

• The frontend service is a react app, built with the create-react-app template. It uses our curated reactjs runtime and uses the typical build commands packaged with yarn.

• The backend service is a nodejs application, which uses our nodejs runtime and uses npm for building the app.

• Lastly, the mongo service uses the public mongo image and reads in the seed.js file provided during the setup routine so that the other services have access to staging data.
