I must admit I was under the assumption that Dock Desktop was a freely available app for Win32 users.

I have since found out it this not the case. Now I understand why it may be painful to install docker on Win32 for some users, and now agree with you on some of your points.

If you dig through the changelogs of all the Ubuntu and Debian packages you will find my name on one or two of them. So yea I know about contributing to open source projects, and how hard it is to get software to install/remove /purge from a system consistently. Some times it's fun, some times it's not so fun.

But in the end learning is the objective. I have learned from this discussion as I hope others have.

happy coding

Wow it must be great contributing to such important projects!

Yeah installing a lot of multi-platform software is sometimes an hassel on Windows machines and sometimes worse on Win32.

I also agree using a Docker image is a neat way to do things and a fun way to challenge oneself.

Happy coding also!
