 If you are running Windows, it is recommended that you first install WSL2, then Docker Desktop, configured for WSL2 and doing your volume mounts from inside WSL2 (such as with Ubuntu).  VS Code with WSL Remote extension will make editing much easier to work with.  Note: you can access your WSL2 instances in explorer via `\\wsl$`.  You may want to add your SBBS volume directory to your Quick access shortcuts. If you are running Windows, it is recommended that you first install WSL2, then Docker Desktop, configured for WSL2 and doing your volume mounts from inside WSL2 (such as with Ubuntu).  VS Code with WSL Remote extension will make editing much easier to work with.  Note: you can access your WSL2 instances in explorer via `\\wsl$`.  You may want to add your SBBS volume directory to your Quick access shortcuts.

 +===== First Run =====
 +
 +For your first run, you may want to run the Synchronet Configuration Program
 +(scfg) before you proceed to start any services.
 +
 +    mkdir -p ~/sbbs
 +    cd ~/sbbs
 +    docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD:/sbbs-data" bbsio/synchronet:latest scfg
 +
 +This will create your sbbs storage directory inside your profile, and run the
 +synchronet configuration program with that directory connected. This container
 +is setup so that the data directories are initialized on first run of (''scfg'' or
 +''sbbs'') if necessary.
