What

A beaver noticed the pond had no sign for Windows wanderers.

Adds two small things below the install one-liner:

  • requires Docker Desktop · git — links to Docker docs, muted so it doesn't compete with the command
  • Windows? — collapsed <details> element, invisible unless you need it. Expands to: open WSL (Ubuntu), not PowerShell; and the wsl --install one-liner for anyone starting from scratch. Docker Desktop handles WSL integration automatically once it's enabled.

Why

Onboarding a Windows user — the paste target (WSL terminal vs PowerShell) isn't obvious and wsl --install is a one-time prereq that's easy to miss.

What it looks like

Collapsed (Mac/Linux users see nothing extra):

curl -fsSL https://woltspace.com/install.sh | bash   [Copy]
requires Docker Desktop · git
Windows? ▶

Expanded:

Windows? ▼
  Open WSL (Ubuntu) — not PowerShell or cmd. No WSL yet?
  Run wsl --install in PowerShell as admin, reboot, then
  paste in the Ubuntu terminal. Docker Desktop handles the
  rest automatically once WSL integration is enabled.

A beaver noticed the pond was missing a sign for Windows wanderers.
Now there's a 'requires Docker Desktop · git' line under the one-liner,
and a collapsed 'Windows?' detail pointing them to WSL — not PowerShell.
Collapsed by default so it doesn't clutter the lodge for everyone else.
