WSL, Ubuntu, Docker Installation, and Run a Docker — In this story, I record my steps by installing Docker in WSL of Windows. The full name of WSL is Windows Subsystem for Linux. While I can install docker in Windows directly, I want to use Linux commands such as curl. WSL is a good way to do it. Also…
