I know that it is possible to connect to a remote Unix machine by running an X Server on Windows and exporting the Unix display to that server. By passing in an environment variable with the docker run command (-e DISPLAY=host.docker.internal:0), I am able to run Unix GUI applications from within a docker container on a Windows computer. I primarily learned about this from this article on Medium.
I've encountered a number of blog posts, some from Microsoft and some external, that discuss the potential for GUI testing Windows applications using the new windows container. Is there a clean way to export the display of an application from within a windows container? Is there some way to run an X11 client on Windows that you can connect to from another Windows computer? Is there an alternative that could be used to accomplish this?
