Hello all,

Using a windows corporate laptop, i cant really have WSL on my pc without admin rights. I was wondering if it is possible to use Discourse only using Docker Desktop without WSL ? I dont want my website to be accessible from the internet , mly purpose is to manipulate discourse in my local before going live later .

Thanks in advance.

Since Docker on Windows is a Linux VM, technically you could spin up a vanilla Ubuntu container and then follow Install Discourse on Ubuntu or Debian for Development .

Persistence would be a bit awkward, but depending on your need it’s better than nothing.
