Is there a VM available for quickly and painlessly getting started with CiviCRM extension development (Wordpress) on Windows? Something that has buildkit installed. I just want to be able to get into learning extension development, on an existing environment that is read-to-go.

There's docker, there's vagrant but there isn't a pre-built VM setup.
I can probably knock something up next week if there's a demand for it (we have a local Ubuntu 18.04 BuildKit VM which we have templated for re-use.

We're also continually testing BuildKit on Windows Subsystem for Linux and this is so close to working with one issue remaining on the WSL platform which is preventing full functionality.

is it at all possible for you "knock something up" and share it with myself and the community? This would be so so so much appreciated! Please let me know?– SudeshCommented Oct 17, 2018 at 8:01
