On the Yappa blog there's a new post about their "trip" towards a PHP and Docker based development environment and the steps they took along the way. The post even includes the full commands and configuration changes you'll need to replicate it.

During a regular work day we work on several PHP projects. Sometimes new projects, but also legacy code which still require earlier versions of PHP. We all work on Macbooks and want to switch quickly and easily between projects. The project requirements vary, the PHP version may be different, or additional services may be required (such as Redis, Elasticsearch, ..).

Unable to mimic the production environment without spending countless hours installing packages on a virtual box for each project.

They start with some of the initial steps they tried including a single local development server and remote servers but points out the issues with each. Ultimately they decided to give Docker a try and came up with their ("almost perfect") development environment. From there they get into the steps to reproduce, the more technical parts, and list the requirements you'll need and the steps in the setup process.
