This is the correct response.

At my job we've been asked to remove Docker desktop unless it is absolutely necessary for a client project.

I've just been using Docker through command line via WSL and that's good enough for me.

I don't see any use for Docker Desktop, you can see the running containers in a gui instead of just typing docker ps in a terminal, damn what a fucking awesome and needed thing, it's gonna totally come in handy when I do deployments through the terminal and I didn't learn the commands

Especially when your ide/editor has a plug-in that does the sane thing than docker desktop anyways

I'm in the process of learning docker, can you share what that is? That sounds very helpful.

In VSCodium you have the docker plugin. It pretty much offers the same capabilities as the Docker desktop (view containers, images, etc. Allow to connect to the containers, to see their files, etc).

That's awesome, thanks! I use VSCodium too, will search it up later. That'll be super useful.

Most jetbrains IDEs also support container management
