I haven't done much Python but from what i understand that means when you cd into the directory it sets up the env vars for you?

If yeah, kinda?

As always, the best thing to do is try it yourself.

Get docker installed and then set up a docker-compose file with a DB configured in it. Do docker-compose up, smile. Then add another db to the file and then pick your jaw up from the floor when you realise how easy it all is.
