Description
As a noob, I would expect the first option described on this page to be "use a .env file in the project directory, which is read by default" , whcih now is mentioned only later (here + here)

Suggestion
add as first section:
## Use a `.env` file
Docker Compose by default looks for an `.env` file in the project directory in the project directory. For more details see [Variable Interpolation](https://docs.docker.com/compose/how-tos/environment-variables/variable-interpolation/#env-file)
