wip Wiki

wip is a Ruby-built CLI that brings a dip-like workflow to Microsoft WSLC. This wiki is where the deeper explanations, guides, and reference material that don't fit in the README live.

Rule of thumb: the README is the fastest path to "get it running"; the wiki is for daily use, troubleshooting, and contributing.

Pages

• Getting Started — install through your first wip up
• Concepts — the three modes (container / compose / compose-native) and the design philosophy
• Configuration Reference — every wip.yml key
• CLI Command Reference — every command, plus how to read --debug output
• Guides — task-oriented how-tos (migrating from dip, fixing slow boots, running sync continuously, ...)
• Troubleshooting & FAQ — common errors and frequently asked questions
• Comparison — how wip relates to dip, docker compose, and third-party compose-for-wslc tools
• Development — contributing, testing, and the release flow
• Roadmap — what's planned, and what's explicitly out of scope
