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.
