Where is docker-compose run web .. putting its files?

Posted on August 24, 2018

I’m running the command “docker-compose run web django-admin.py startproject composeexample .” and it’s operating correctly, localhost:8000 shows Django is working, but I can’t find the files like manage.py that are produced.

On my local machine the same command put the resulting files in a code directory off the home directory. I don’t see signs of the files anywhere in any home directory. I have no idea why this behavior is different on the droplet.
