I have Windows 10 Home and cannot therefore install and run the Docker Engine (without resorting to using Docker Toolbox).
I do, however, have Ubuntu running in Windows Subsystem for Linux.
Is it possible for me to run Docker Engine inside WSL on my Windows 10 Home machine?
tdcc :
The answer is no, as a blog post from MSDN indicates:\n\n\n We frequently get asked about running docker from within the Windows\n Subsystem for Linux (WSL). We don’t support running the docker daemon\n directly in WSL. But what you can do is call in to the daemon running\n under Windows from WSL.\n\n\nNote that \"The daemon running under Windows\" is only possible using the Hyper-V virtualization feature which is not available in the Windows 10 Home edition.",

the next feature update for Windows 10 will be released in the next weeks and it will finally support Docker Engine inside WSL. Well, not oficially, but I'm testing the Release Preview build 17134 and I can confirm the dockerd from docker.io that comes with Ubuntu xenial works.\n\nI can even compile docker from source using a docker container inside WSL. \nIt's great news for Windows10 Home users and also for those who don't have Vt-x support on their hardware, like my old 2008 PC.",
