If you don't want any local setup (apart from Docker Desktop), but still run your own Hugo instance, you can make use of the preconfigured devcontainer.

1. Start [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop) and [switch to Linux containers](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/windows/#switch-between-windows-and-linux-containers) by right-clicking on the Docker logo in the system tray and selecting "Switch to Linux containers...". If you only see "Switch to Windows containers...", then you are already switched to Linux containers. If anything goes wrong, check the extended installation documentation [here](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers#_installation)

When switching to Linux, you will probably see a warning that tells you that you "will not be able to manage the Windows containers until you switch back to Windows containers". That means that the Docker Desktop management GUI can only show either the Windows containers or the Linux containers and if you switch to Linux, you consequently won't see the Windows containers until you switch back. But the Windows containers will continue to run, you won't loose data and you can keep using them e.g. for Business Central development, you just can't manage them through the Docker Desktop GUI
