     - `-dp 3000:3000` - same as before. Run in detached (background) mode and create a port mapping
     - `-w /app` - sets the container's present working directory where the command will run from

+    - `-v "$(pwd):/app"` - bind mount (link) the host's present `getting-started/app` directory to the container's `/app` directory. Note: Docker requires absolute paths for binding mounts, so in this example we use `pwd` for printing the absolute path of the working directory, i.e. the `app` directory, instead of typing it manually
     - `node:12-alpine` - the image to use. Note that this is the base image for our app from the Dockerfile
     - `sh -c "yarn install && yarn run dev"` - the command. We're starting a shell using `sh` (alpine doesn't have `bash`) and
       running `yarn install` to install _all_ dependencies and then running `yarn run dev`. If we look in the `package.json`,
