I am novice to using the Registry API within Docker and want to know what application do I use to run these API commands? Since I’m on a Windows server and using tools like Powershell, Visual Studio and VS Code, do I fire up a basic terminal window there and run the commands there? Or is there a better way that I’m unaware of? Thanks for reading and replying.

Well, I’ve made some progress, I can run a curl command and see the catalog both on the developer box and the registry server itself. From a Powershell prompt, I’m running:

curl XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:5000/v2/_catalog and I get a Status Code of 200 and Status Description of OK.

The question I still have is where would I put the GET and am I still using Powershell as my UI or something else like VSCode and writing and running a JSON?
