Newbie question, but is there any straightforward way to have Google Play Services in WSA ?

I understand it fulfills the "android" promise, but the majority of the ecosystem needed Play Services is the harsh reality.

I found that just installing the APKs necessary for a Fire 10 HD works (services, frameworks, etc). You can't use the true Google Play Store but Aurora store seems fine. I only tested this on an ARM64 device so perhaps it falls flat on x64 systems.
