WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

"How can I use Linux if I have a Windows Machine ?
In the past, I used VMware or VirtualBox with a Linux distribution, dual-booted, or used another machine with Linux for my experiments with Linux. However, Canonical and Microsoft worked together to create WSL (and WSL2), which simplifies bringing Linux to Windows users. It removes complexity, makes collaboration between operating systems easier, and allows for easy integration between Linux and Windows hosts, taking advantage of the machine's resources."
" By default, it installs the Ubuntu Linux distro."
