# Stop the application

## `yarn stop` or `npm run stop`

This command stops a local deployment of your Magento 2 application. It does it in the following steps:

1. Gracefully stops Docker containers.
2. Removes the Docker network used by the application.

## Usage example

```bash
yarn stop # for Yarn
npm run stop # for NPM
```
