How to use multiple docker containers?

Question

Docker

My goal is to run a Vue + Laravel project on a server using docker. I'm trying to figure out how to connect Laravel and a database to a running Vue container.

I read a lot of articles, but in them Vue is not a CLI, but built into Laravel. I have Vue - a clean front, Laravel - a clean back. I've been scratching my head for a few days already..

Dockerfile

FROM node:lts-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN  npm install
EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["npm", "run", "serve"]

docker-compose.yml

version: '3'
services:
    web:
        build: .
        stdin_open: true
        tty: true
        ports: 
            - "8080:8080"
        volumes:
            - "/app/node_modules" 
            - ".:/app"
