tl;dr: Read the Quick Start Guide.

Drupal VM makes building Drupal development environments quick and easy, and introduces developers to the wonderful world of Drupal development on virtual machines or Docker containers (instead of crufty old MAMP/WAMP-based development).

Docker Desktop for Windows user manual. Estimated reading time: 17 minutes. Welcome to Docker Desktop! The Docker Desktop for Windows user manual provides information on how to configure and manage your Docker Desktop settings. Docker is just a fancy way to run a process, not a virtual machine. Now, let me explain a bit more about what that means. Virtual machines are their own beast. I feel like explaining what Docker is will help you understand this more than explaining what a virtual machine is. Especially because there are many fine answers here telling you. Docker build -t springio/gs-spring-boot-docker. Docker run -p 8080:8080 springio/gs-spring-boot-docker Note the started by in the first INFO log entry::: Spring Boot:: (v2.2.1.RELEASE) 2020-04-23 07:29:41.729 INFO 1 - main hello.Application: Starting Application on b94c86e91cf9 with PID 1 (/app started by spring in /).

It will install the following on an Ubuntu 18.04 (by default) linux VM:

• Apache 2.4.x (or Nginx)
• PHP 7.2.x (configurable)
• MySQL 5.7.x (or MariaDB, or PostgreSQL)
• Drupal 7 or 8
• Optional:
  • Selenium (for Behat testing)

It should take 5-10 minutes to build or rebuild the VM from scratch on a decent broadband connection.

Please read through the official documentation:

This VM includes many convenient utilities for local development, most of which can be enabled or disabled as you see fit (not everyone needs or wants an extra bundle of junk that they don't care about wasting their workstation's resources!).
