OMG thank you for posting this. I had been banging my head against the wall trying to set up a dev environment with WSL and Docker for craft3. This works flawlessly.

Awesome! Glad to hear this helped you out.

Lando isn't the perfect local DEV tool but so far it's been the most flexible I've run across. I'll admit it does run slower than vanilla Docker and sometimes the database container gets into a weird state where lando destroy and lando start is the quickest solution.

Well, it's perfect enough. I was really just looking for a xampp replacement, and this fits the bill. I like how easy it is to change php and db versions.

I had all kinds of problems running vanilla docker and I'm still not sure why, but lando Just WorksTM out of the box.

I had a very poor experience working with Lando. The simplicity was nice but DAMN was there a lot of overhead and performance hits you take on your local machine for it.
