Can you run Linux containers on Windows Server?

Q. Will I be able to run Linux container applications on Windows Server containers?

A. Review  "What is the difference between Windows Containers and Hyper-V Containers in Windows Server 2016".

Note the important part is while the application is in a container it still runs on the underlying OS of the host and Linux applications do not run on Windows.

Note also that it may be possible to run Linux containers using Hyper-V containers, since each container runs on its own instance of the OS, but this is not currently confirmed as functionality.
