A curated awesome list of resources for the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), covering distributions, tools, terminals, X servers, and guides for development on WSL. It serves as a reference catalog rather than software itself.
Use cases
- find linux distributions that run on wsl
- learn how to set up wsl2 on windows 10
- discover tools for managing wsl installations
- run gui linux apps on windows
- set up web development environment on wsl
- use cuda gpu development inside wsl
- enable systemd in wsl
When to choose
- you are starting with WSL and want a comprehensive curated resource list
- you want to compare WSL distributions or find unofficial ones
- you need pointers to WSL utilities, terminals, and X servers
When to avoid
- you need actual WSL software rather than links to it
- you need documentation for Linux systems outside of WSL
- you want a maintained tool rather than a reference list
