I failed at the second hurdle. Some pre-requisite knowledge that you have not explained. For a topic that appeared to be aimed at new docker user and using Windows system with VS Code as I have, I did not expect to be stumped so soon. I have reviewed a lot of tutorials and I have found ever one of them to be missing vital information (some are outright wrong). The effort you have gone to here looked promising so I have signed up to this site just to see if you still monitor this old topic and might have a response.
Here is the issue:
In the opening paragraph you write:
"Next command creates a new folder with name test-node-app, then creates npm package file and opens folder in VS Code.
mkdir test-node-app && cd test-node-app && npm init -y && code ."
Where do you type that? the syntax is wrong for powershell or command prompt and WSL doesn't know about npm so there must be some other pre-requsite knowledge or something missing in the Setup section.
Using powershell and appropriate commands to achieve the same as the linux style command line intends I have been able to continue. Perhaps though I am misisng something really important. Do you assume for example that the reader has already installed a unix VM and that they are running from that shell?
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
