    I strongly recommend just switching the Dev environment over to Linux and taking advantage of tools like "distrobox" and "toolbx". https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox It is sorta like Vagrant, but instead of using virtualbox virtual machines you use podman containers. This way you get to use OCI images for your "dev environment" that integrates directly into your desktop. https://podman.io/ There is some challenges related to usermode networking for non-root-managed controllers and desktop integration has some additional complications. But besides that it has almost no overhead and you can have unfettered access to things like GPUs. Also it is usually pretty easy to convert your normal docker or kubernetes containers over to something you can run on your desktop. Also it is possible to use things like Kubernetes pods definitions to deploy sets of containers with podman and manage it with systemd and such things. So you can have "clouds of containers" that your dev container needs access to locally. If there is a corporate need for window-specific applications then running Windows VMs or doing remote applications over RDP is a possible work around. If everything you are targeting as a deployment is going to be Linux anything then it doesn't make a lot of sense to jump through a bunch of hoops and cause a bunch of headaches just to avoid having it as workstation OS.
