# Boot and supervise local multi-service process stacks from one declarative file with process-compose

Start, watch, and restart a local stack of app processes together instead of juggling many terminals and ad hoc shell loops.

## Prerequisites

process-compose binary, a process-compose YAML file, local service commands and dependencies, terminal access to the development or test environment

## Installation

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- **Why?** Because sometimes you just don't want to deal with docker files, volume definitions, networks and docker registries.

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- Run Multiple Replicas of a Process
- Run a Foreground Process
- [Quick Start](https://f1bonacc1.github.io/process-compose/intro/)
