I use it to run Emacs with Magit quite nicely :)

    $> wsl --install -d Ubuntu-20.04
    $> wsl
    $> sudo apt upgrade
    $> sudo apt update
    $> sudo apt install emacs
    $> git clone https://github.com/.../.emacs.d.git
    $> emacs --daemon
Shortcut on desktop (with VcXsrv running):

C:\Windows\System32\wsl.exe bash -c "export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 && export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 && export XCURSOR_SIZE=16 && setsid emacsclient -c"
