Copying a directory's contents in Docker

DockerCOPY & ADDCOPYintermediate

What this snippet does

COPY of a directory copies its contents, not the directory itself, so /app/src never exists.

Expected output

index.js
utils.js

Why practise typing this

Typing copy & add code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation Docker uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
