Let's dive into the world of the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), a game-changer in cross-platform compatibility. In 30 minutes, we'll uncover how WSL seamlessly brings together the best of both Windows and Linux environments.

We'll start with a quick history lesson, tracing the evolution of WSL from its inception to its present-day position in Windows. We will then look at how WSL works, dissecting its architecture, and understanding the differences between WSL 1 and the enhanced WSL 2. You will see how files and tools can seamlessly traverse between Linux and Windows. We'll roll up our sleeves and venture into the Linux terminal within WSL, uncovering powerful command-line tools and even diving into running Linux graphical applications on Windows using WSLg. By the end of the session you'll hopefully see how Windows has helped realise the vision of Linux on the desktop!
