Yesterday, with a brand new Windows machine just set up, with WSL2 not yet installed, I was able to install WSL2, the Ubuntu distro, and then use the upcoming Windows installer to install #DDEV. In 10 minutes. In a total of 15 minutes I had a running Drupal 11 project fully installed with composer and drush.

Fantastic overview of the overall #ddev project structure and progress towards greater sustainability from Randy Fay: 
https://ddev.com/blog/sustainability-for-ddev/
I’m proud to be part of the team! 
Lots of great info in here, including the fact that there are 17k weekly users! 
(If just 5% gave $15 USD/month, we’d meet our fundraising goal! 
)
This explainer about using #ddev with really old versions of PHP 
and MySQL 
would also be useful if you need to spin up that old #drupal 6 site!

Hey #ddev team: does this mean what I think it does?
AppleInsiderSorry Docker: macOS 26 adds native support for Linux containers | AppleInsiderRunning a Linux virtual machine on Mac can be resource-exhaustive, but Apple just made it much better in macOS 26 with native support for running Linux containers without the need for third-party apps like Docker.
The #ddev project currently has about $7,700 USD contributed each month

@tdose is momenteel flink aan de gang, en we hebben het gezellig. Naast de interesante talks wordt ook de #NLLGG stand goed bezocht. Naast dat we info geven over de vereniging en Linux verkopen we vandaag ook #Ventoy sticks met meerdere #distros erop.
Vandaag niet gered? De sessie van ons lid @Cambion over #LeavingBigTech is opgenomen, en #tdose2025 is er morgen ook nog, en ook dan zijn wij weer aanwezig! Ons lid @sysosmaster zal dan ook een sessie houden over #DDEV.
