Come posso installare Discourse su Windows? Ottenere errore di riavvio (100)

I tried using Docker Desktop on both Windows and macOS, but I couldn’t get it to work. I don’t need production setup yet, I just want to run Discourse locally for testing and development.

Can anyone share a simple, step-by-step guide to install Discourse on Windows (or Mac) that actually works?
Do I need to use WSL2 + Ubuntu, or is there a way to run it directly with Docker Desktop?

Thanks in advance!
