Evaluate Docker desktop alternatives

[JokeFrels]

As a project that has no license for docker desktop, I want to have an alternative docker variant as part of devon-ide so that I can still use devon-ide to set up docker.

Tasks:

Evaluate existing alternatives (the already existing evaluation can be used as a basis)

• Docker in wsl
• Lazydocker in wsl
• Rancher desktop
• Podman-minikube
• Other alternatives?

Acceptance criteria:

• There is a presentation similar to the current one that compares at least the alternatives listed above (more alternatives are welcome) by sensible criterias like performance, installability, ...
• There is a well-founded recommendation which of the alternatives should be added to the devon IDE standard tools
• The chosen alternative works with Kubernetes
• The chosen alternative works in VPN
• On the website there is an explanation why the alternative was chosen (similar information as in the presentation) (Ascii-Format)

AC Sprint 3

• Documenation is done.
• .ppt is saved within the public devonfw channel

#634 is the same or simply the epic accordingly?

#634 is the epic to which this story belongs to

A sensible criterium is that other cloud tools (Helm, Terraform) should be compatible with the chosen solution

Meanwhile RancherDesktop 1.0.0 (end of beta) has been released.
I already switched from DockerDesktop to RancherDesktop.
It already can ship with docker, kubectl and helm:

RancherDesktop will also come witn docker compose automatically in v1.1.0

Great news regarding the VPN-problem with WSL2! The solution mentioned by @SchettlerKoehler and @nikiOstrov, after working for @SchettlerKoehler, also seems to work for me. So CLI-Tools like docker-cli or podman should be able to e.g. pull images as expected with this package. Maybe this tool should become part of #690? What do you think @hohwille?

Could you please share the solution for VPN?

Thanks, the one we saw time ago. I thought there was another way, @cinnamon-coder-hub message was unspecific. Anyway, thanks!

Hello @nikiOstrov and @cinnamon-coder-hub ,
this task can be closed, right?

It depends. As far as I know one of the acceptance criteria isn't fulfilled yet. I would want to write down the explanation why Rancher-Desktop was choosen as alternative together with the documentation for the commandlet implementation of Rancher-Desktop, after implementing the commandlet, or by the end of next week.

@cinnamon-coder-hub,
i thought implementing the commandlet is part of #690?

Done and documented with PR #720
