Scratch all of my issues - it was apparently something on my end; couldn't access the UI via

localhost:8000

but if i used the IP address assigned to my WSL2 instance, which is different than my Windows desktop, it worked.

I'm glad to hear that you were able to resolve your issue and access the Airbyte UI. Using the IP address assigned to your WSL2 instance is indeed a valid way to access the UI if

localhost:8000

is not working. For future reference or for anyone else experiencing similar issues, here are the steps to deploy Airbyte on Windows with WSL2: 1. Check out system requirements from [Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/windows/install/). 2. Install Docker Desktop on Windows from [here](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/windows/install/). Make sure to select the options: - Enable Hyper-V Windows Features - Install required Windows components for WSL 2 3. After installation, it will require to reboot your computer. 4. Run the following commands in your terminal:

git clone <https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte.git>      cd airbyte      bash run-ab-platform.sh

5. In your browser, visit

<http://localhost:8000>

or the IP address assigned to your WSL2 instance. Source: [Airbyte Local Deployment Documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/local-deployment)
