Windows WSL and Containers in 2023

Bret is joined by fellow Docker Captain Nuno do Carmo to talk about desktop container solutions and the best Docker setup for Windows 11. 🙌 My next course is coming soon! I've opened the waitlist for those wanting to go deep in GitHub Actions for DevOps and AI automation in 2025. I'm so thrilled to announce this course. The waitlist allows you to quickly sign up for some content updates, discounts, and more as I finish building the course. https://learn.bretfisher.com/waitlist🍾Nuno's a Docker Captain, Civo Ambassador, Microsoft MVP, and a big fan of Windows and Cloud Native. I've had him on the show before, because the more you use the Windows Subsystem for Linux and Docker Desktop, the more you'll want to use WSL.Nuno helps answer many questions such as where are the Linux files stored, managing the CPU and memory resources, backing up files in WSL, getting the host Windows Explorer into the Linux filesystem, getting back to the Windows file system from the Linux shell and more!Live recording of this show from February 23, 2023 on YouTube (Ep. #204).
