I qm also Win 10 user.
Docker on windows have some issues:

  • it falls from time to time (need to restart) mounts are weird:
  • permissions are always something like 755 and it could mess inage building on linux, where you do not have tested it
  • for example you could not mount data folder in Postgress image, it do not go along

If you want to use Win, it can be managable, having Win 10Pro would help.
otherwise i would pick Debian or so, Docker experience will be better for sure.
