Nix supposedly works in the new Linux subsystem of Windows 10, but I haven't tried it.

Nix itself does indeed work on the latest version of WSL. However, there are still issues with building most of the packages from nixpkgs. For instance, I'm still waiting for this issue to be solved: https://github.com/Microsoft/BashOnWindows/issues/1878

Other distros are also affected by these issues, so I think they'll be solved eventually.
