Thanks for the mention, Alexandre. By the way, to test my scripts I use Windows Sandbox, what do you use?

Interesting I thought of using Windows Sandbox but I did not know if it works to configure windows features like WSL, containers... Does it ? I should use Windows Sandbox next time because your approach seems better that what I did : reset an old laptop each time I wanted to try the complete setup 😃

It was quite some time ago, so I am not absolutely sure WSL and containers worked in the Sandbox as it is already a virtual machine...
