Thanks for the tutorial!

See: docker volume inspect todo-db

It's nice to answer "Where is my data" question up front. ... But on Windows it doesn't help that much to show "Mountpoint": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/todo-db/_data", ... It may be true, but it is somewhere in the WSL environment.

So for Windows users it would be nice to get the "real" windows path.

hmmm, In the file explorer we can start with \\wsl$ It seems to be: \\wsl.localhost\docker-desktop-data\data\docker\volumes\todo-db\_data
