I run VcXsrv X-Window on Windows (Multiple windows mode) and then from WSL2 Ubuntu I've run e.g. "terminator" and Jetbrains CLion C++/Rust GUI, Linux Version "~/bin/clion.sh &". It works very well.
Yep, that's what I cover using in the video linked above too. VcXsrv is so good. Nowadays I mainly use it to share my clipboard between WSL and Windows so I can use native Linux tools that copy to the clipboard without resorting to any hacks.
If you install an X server on Windows you can run graphical WSL apps. It runs really well too. Years ago I used to run Sublime Text straight from within WSL.
I've been using WSL / WSL 2 for a few years now for full time web development. A while back I made a video going over all the tools I use and how I have Docker, WSL 2 and a bunch of other things configured at: https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/a-linux-dev-environment-on-wi...
