I use https://github.com/pimutils/khal ...maybe it would work with WSL?... for calendar and markdown diary (have a script that pulls calendar items, tasks that are due from taskwarrior, and notes from yesterday's "tomorrow" section into each new day's journal/diary entry) via vimwiki.

  TTDL - Terminal Todo List Manager

I have used WSL in past and felt it's not worthy for 1/2 selective applications. So my current workflow is, I open a calendar with TTDL in one split and diary.org file with Helix in another split. I guess that's best I can get.

  Modernity meets insane extensibility. The future of organizing your life in Neovim.

  

With https://github.com/nvim-neorg/neorg (NeoVim plugin) you then have both tools in one. But maybe you enjoy Helix too much to consider NeoVim?

  A text-based calendar and scheduling application

The Windows CLI is unfriendly to developers, a bit of shoving great-grandpa in the corner (despite its origins in DOS); as such, CLI developers tend not to spend much time investing in Windows-native TUI applications. With WSL, you at least mitigate a lot of that, opening you (OP) to the *nix world of CLI/TUI applications. Within WSL, you (OP) might also investigate calcurse which allows you to associate items like notes with dates. Or check out remind, my favorite, but focused more on complex calendaring rather than journaling (for my journaling, I just have a single text-file)
