I really like the Windows 10 OpenSUSE terminal. Just install it from the Windows Store. OR you could install the Ubuntu Terminal. Either way they have replaced cmder for me.

One thing you need to be careful with regarding WSL is that it still doesn't correctly handle umask[0].

There are some workarounds if you use particular terminals (for instance you can't use Mobaxterm as it forces 777 regardless) but it's not exactly 'it just works' yet.
