Re:The Windows Subsystem for Linux is now open source by 0xbadcafebee on Monday May 19, 2025 @04:25PM (#44034424)
You're right, it is incredibly nice. Just the other day I got a Windows-only developer to install and use the POSIX/*NIX toolkit we use for development/deployment. In 30 minutes he was editing and deploying left and right with our normal open source stack. No messing around with Cygwin or MSYS or anything, it all just worked in Ubuntu on WSL. It's fantastic.
