## Prerequisites
Complete [Containerize a Deno application](containerize.md).
## Overview
In this section, you'll learn how to set up a development environment for your containerized application. This includes:
- Configuring Compose to automatically update your running Compose services as you edit and save your code
## Get the sample application
Clone the sample application to use with this guide. Open a terminal, change directory to a directory that you want to work in, and run the following command to clone the repository:
```console
$ git clone https://github.com/dockersamples/docker-deno.git && cd docker-deno
```
## Automatically update services
Use Compose Watch to automatically update your running Compose services as you
edit and save your code. For more details about Compose Watch, see [Use Compose
Watch](/manuals/compose/how-tos/file-watch.md).
Open your `compose.yml` file in an IDE or text editor and then add the Compose Watch instructions. The following example shows how to add Compose Watch to your `compose.yml` file.
```yaml {hl_lines="9-12",linenos=true}
services:
server:
image: deno-server
build:
context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile
ports:
- "8000:8000"
develop:
watch:
- action: rebuild
path: .
```
Run the following command to run your application with Compose Watch.
```console
$ docker compose watch
```
Now, if you modify your `server.ts` you will see the changes in real time without re-building the image.
To test it out, open the `server.ts` file in your favorite text editor and change the message from `{"Status" : "OK"}` to `{"Status" : "Updated"}`. Save the file and refresh your browser at `http://localhost:8000`. You should see the updated message.
Press `ctrl+c` in the terminal to stop your application.
## Summary
In this section, you also learned how to use Compose Watch to automatically rebuild and run your container when you update your code.
