It's a lot more fun with WSL 2. Something to get you started: https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2020/03/02/docker-in-wsl....

It requires you to sign up for the Windows Insider program though.

Also check this for an annoying issue and a workaround: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/4166.

WSL2 is being widely released in the next Windows feature update, though there's no hard date for it yet as far as I know...it's coming soon.

The version is called 2004 so presumably April 2020 unless there are delays due to COVID-19.

Thanks for that last link, a problem I had with WSL now makes sense to me.
