Hi everyone,

What are you using, or what are you planning to use, WSL2 for?

We had an annecdotal story the other day that folks are excited about being able to run Node inside WSL, so we’ll be looking at how we can make updating those packages as easy as possible.

What will you be doing with WSL2? If none of the below, leave a comment.

  • Bash/Shell
  • C/C++
  • Dart
  • Docker
  • Go
  • Haskell
  • Java
  • Microk8s/K8s
  • Node/Javascript
  • Kotlin
  • Perl
  • PHP
  • Python
  • R
  • Ruby
  • Rust
  • Scala
  • SQL / NoSQL Server
  • Web server
