Remove or modernize outdated docker-compose.yml (seems unused) #4492

Summary

The file docker-compose.yml currently contains only:

tesseract:
    build: .

This very minimal configuration uses legacy docker-compose v1 syntax and appears to be unused in the current Tesseract workflow.

Why This Matters:

  • The file has not been referenced in documentation, CI, the Docker image workflow, or development setup instructions.
  • It was created about 9 years ago during Travis CI Docker experiments.
  • Its current content does not provide functional value and may cause confusion for contributors who assume an active docker-compose setup exists.

Proposal:

  • I would like to propose one of the following:
  • Remove docker-compose.yml if it is no longer needed
    (likely the cleanest option),
    or
  • Provide guidance on its intended purpose so that I can update or modernize it.
  • I am happy to submit a PR for whichever direction maintainers prefer.
