first time docker user. i need some help with setting up docker on wsl.

i followed u/nickjj_'s guide "Setting Up Docker for Windows and WSL to Work Flawlessly" up to the "Configure WSL to Connect to Docker for Windows" section where i learned that i also need to install docker on windows.

yes, the article was clear and mentioned this at the beginning, but being the i am, i thought i could skip this and install docker as i did in a live ubuntu.

so i went to docker hub, created an id and downloaded "docker desktop for windows"

how should i now set up docker desktop for windows (2.1.0.3) to make it work with wsl?

i have windows 10 home and installation failed because it seems it needs win 10 pro or enterprise version 15063 to run.

any work arounds to make this work?

i am trying to build an appimage for the r/electrum bitcoin wallet and one of the main developers suggested that i might be able to use docker on wsl.
