Sorrt for may be a complete ignorant question but whats the use case of docker desktop as opposed docker cli

[dns_snek]

Docker Engine (the "CLI") only works on Linux. "Desktop" is supposed to offer a unified experience across platforms, it offers a GUI, ships Docker Engine inside a virtual machine so that it works on Windows and MacOS, and tries to make the VM as transparent/invisible as possible (with varying success) with filesystem mounts and network configuration.

It also includes a local k8s cluster. So you get 2 in 1 package.

Why would you want that?
