Nginx pointed to wrong directory with Docker on Windows - php

Question

I'm setting up a Laravel application with Docker, using a Docker image configuration I found here: https://blog.pusher.com/docker-for-development-laravel-php/
Now, this works fine on my Ubuntu machine (16.04), but on Window (10 Pro) I get a weird error. It first complains about not finding a composer.json file. Then, with each request I make to localhost:8000, I get the following error:
15#15: *1 open() "/var/www/public404" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 172.17.0.1, server: , request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", host: "localhost:8000"
I am very new to this, but it seems that nginx points to /var/www/public404 - I have no idea how that "404" got there. I have a feeling it has to do with the line try_files $uri = 404; in the site.conf file, however, I don't really know how that works and I don't want to break it... The weird thing is that this works with Ubuntu, but not on Windows (or maybe that's not weird at all?).
I use docker build . -t my-image to build the image and docker run -p 8000:80 --name="my-container" my-image to run a container using the image.
The EOL of all the config files is set to line feed. Does anybody have any idea how I might fix this?

As mentioned in the comments above, I just forgot to add the -v parameter in the docker run command, like so:
docker run -p 8000:80 -v $PWD/src:/var/www --name="my-container" my-image
... with $PWD/src being the full path to the src directory.
