There is just one PieFed running in docker on the Pi. My labeling might be a little confusing there.
I followed the easy instructions up until getting PieFed running in the background then skipped down to the Running PieFed in production section. I didn't see any of the files mentioned in that section and thought to continue from there.
No worries, I'm at least learning a lot about network communication and using the terminal in linux more comfortably. In this case I learned how virtual environments work.
Also since it's a Pi, I've been copying and swapping SD cards at certain points as a backup. It's easy to clean up learning mistakes along the way. It's also good practice before I do it all over again on a proper storage device.
