+Default log location: `/tmp/process-compose-$USER.log`
+
+**Tip:** It is recommended to add the following process configuration to your `process-compose.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+processes:  
+  pc_log:
+    command: "tail -f -n100 process-compose-${USER}.log"
+    working_dir: "/tmp"
+```
+
+This will allow you to spot any issues with the processes execution, without leaving the `process-compose` TUI.
