i hope this message reach you well. I was wonder where is the docker network nifi_nifinet defined and created? I'm trying to change the network setup to use a different docker custom network. thanks!

I'm intrigued that you install docker inside the WSL environment. I'm currently trying to figure out the best approach for my dev setup and I have Docker Desktop installed in my Windows environment. I can still run Linux containers thanks to WSL so I'm wondering what the pros & cons are of each approach. I guess I could also run Windows containers if I wanted, whereas docker inside WSL wouldn't permit that?

I feel wierd after seeing others reading the wslconfig because I added the section, when it did not exist (ps also Craig Loewen pointed it out )

[spoofer]

How do you make the docker engine inside wsl available to windows, say for when you're trying to use testcontainers?

My status is showing as docker is not running.. I followed all the steps

This is not a Windows Development Environment. It's a Linux Development Environment, but you're running it inside a docker container on Windows.
