The dockerfile at https://git.chapo.chat/hexbear-collective/lemmy-hexbear/src/branch/main/docker/dev is meant to be for when you compile it and build it locally.
That's nice that someone has pushed the container images to that registry, so that you could pull them down, but that's not the point of that Dockerfile and docker-compose file.
Order doesn't matter, you need to build both hexbear-frontend and lemmy-hexbear to get a local environment.
Basically, there's no repository that just contains the docker-compose files and good instructions for how to build all the containers. It's sprinkled throughout the repositories, which is kind of bad, when they have these cross-repo dependencies. But I'm not willing/able to tackle that at the moment.
Like, they didn't use a tool like Helm, or frankly, make their docker-compose files modular enough to work for both local testing, and production (usually this is done via environment variables and templating) so that they work for both. Instead there's just copies of docker-compose files littered throughout the repos.
I do this kind of stuff for a living, but I can't force everyone to do things the right way.

Yes you also need to build the frontend https://git.chapo.chat/hexbear-collective/hexbear-frontend

Order doesn't matter. They just both have to be built. You probably built the backend, and didn't finish/wait for the frontend.
