Windows Subsystem for Linux is a great tool that let developers try Linux tools, applications directly in Windows. The Linux kernel and Windows kernel can now share system resources, such as memory and CPU.
I am trying some open sources that cannot run on Windows. They are working well with WSL2.
- Rocket.Chat: I compiled and run successfully.
- Apache Airflow: Run successfully.
Beside that, from Windows, developers can use tools to code or interact with the applications, source code in WSL system. Some are:
- Windows Terminal supports console to Linux system.
- Visual Studio Code supports development with source code in Linux system.
