The handful of times I've tried it, it didn't work right. Tried running docker under wsl2, whole system crashed...

Just sticking with git bash (despite Windows-isms) and docker desktop for now. Actual Linux on my home desktop.

What a difference a few months makes... on the 2004 update via insiders channel... WSL2 and Docker Desktop WSL2 config are working great now. VS Code's WSL extension is really nice as well... much better experience than the last time I tried it.
