ddev: Run a specific command within a container.

ddev

$ ddev exec ${echo 1}

try on your machine

The command ddev exec ${echo 1} is using the ddev command line tool to execute a command within a Docker container.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

ddev: Refers to the ddev command line tool, which is typically used for local development with web-based projects.
exec: Specifies that the command given after it should be executed within a running Docker container associated with the project.
${echo 1}: This part is using variable substitution in the command to execute the result of the command echo 1. The echo command is used to print the string passed to it as an argument, and in this case, it is 1.

So, when ddev exec ${echo 1} is executed, it runs the command echo 1 within the Docker container and outputs 1 as a result.
