===== Overview ===== WSL is the abbreviation for 'Windows Subsystem for Linux', which enables 'the developers to run GNU/Linux environment directly on Windows, without the overhead of a traditional virtual machine'. In brief, you can run software designed for Linux, even those with graphical interface! The combination of **Win11, WSL2 and Ubuntu-22.04** is recommended, in my opinion. ===== Installation ===== Reference: https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/466001838 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install I put the file Ubuntu20.04 in rainbow:/home/GM/workshop/WS-20230415-zhangyk-wsl_nmrpipe. Wish this will save your time. Plan to write a version of wiki using only mouse and keyboard, which shall be more friendly. -- Zhangyk, 20230415
