> First you install VSCode then spend then next 12 hours getting docker to run dev containers inside a WSL2 image (which is just a VM that can't talk to the internet) and TADA

Thought this article was old or something, but no, it’s from a few days ago.

Docker (for Windows) in WSL2 is the default now - if you wanted to do it a few years ago, then yes, it could be complicated to set up docker within WSL2 manually[0], but Docker has long moved away from being a Slow VM (toolbox) and recently from its own VM in Hyper-V to running inside WSL2, both of which offer near-native performance (depending on where your bind mounts are).
