I use lando, a docker compose wrapper. It’s instructions say to install docker inside wsl, but also warns of stability issues.

Last I checked, Docker desktop in windows requires a license for commercial users, whereas this method doesn't.

Docker Desktop requires a license for commercial users no matter which platform you use it on.

the Docker daemon and Docker CLI are open source and are free, even on Windows.
