The Compose file is a [YAML](https://yaml.org){: target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="_"} file defining services,
networks, and volumes for a Docker application. The latest and recommended
version of the Compose file format is defined by the [Compose
Specification](https://github.com/compose-spec/compose-spec/blob/master/spec.md){:
target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="_"}. The Compose spec merges the legacy
2.x and 3.x versions, aggregating properties across these formats and is implemented by **Compose 1.27.0+**.
The [Compose Specification](https://github.com/compose-spec/compose-spec/blob/master/spec.md) is the latest and recommended version of the Compose file format. It helps you define a [Compose file](03-compose-file.md) which is used to configure your Docker application’s services, networks, volumes, and more.
