Perhaps I misunderstand your comment but when you run docker / podman in Windows, you are using WSL / HyperV.

Just FYI you can also run a windows docker natively in windows without using WSL or any linux component. But that's more of a niche usecase.

running docker on windows runs docker in wsl (which is a HyperV guest). The project offers running docker images as wsl instance (which is a HyperV guest), no docker involved

The linked project includes a very different way to launch docker containers.
