I've honestly been scared to switch from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop on Windows. Like do I have to switch or do they play nice together? Do I need to install Docker in WSL to use it, or kubectl, or is it like Docker Desktop where it "just works."

So many questions...

You can have Docker Desktop and Rancher Desktop installed on the same Windows machine. Last I checked, you can't run them both at the same time due to docker socket locations (assuming you run Rancher Desktop using Moby).

Rancher Desktop will provide the CLI tools to work with it.

The idea is "it just works". It's a desktop app so it installs what you need.
