This is the only way I could get Docker volumes to work correctly with WSL, and it only works about half the time:

Microsoft already has a version of docker that runs Windows on host and guest

Windows Server Containers are a ground up build of containers, not a port of Docker. You don’t even need Docker to manage them.

Yes. But there is a port of docker to manage them so people who insist on using only docker can continue to do so without having to risk learning a new technology.

Docker on windows host runs in a virtualbox running linux last time i checked.

There are two different editions. The more popular runs a Linux kernel in a spun up HyperV instance, but the Windows-only solution has images built off of Windows Nano Server instead of Linux. Their docker images/apps are incompatible.

Ah ok, but HyperV is not available on Windows Home editions :( Do you know if it's possible to run Docker with high performance on Windows Home?

No, docker toolbox is broken. The best option right now is to upgrade to pro or dual boot.

HyperV is outstanding and I don't regret paying for the Pro upgrade to get it.

This, although I wish running a desktop guest Dev environment were a better experience :| The new enhanced session Linux turned out to be pretty lackluster.

There is native Docker support for running Windows containers, either using Hyper-V on Windows 10 or natively without any virtualization on Windows server.

Technically a native OSX Docker port is possible, although with some limitations (no bind mounts is going to make it a bit weird). There is not really much call for it, as it is not a server OS.
