  1. wsldl

    Advanced WSL launcher / installer. (Win10 FCU x64/arm64 or later.)

    One thing I've noticed is there isn't many distributions available for WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), while for most the small selection of Ubuntu, Kali, SUSE, Debian, Alpine, and Fedora is sufficient, others have chosen to add support for more distributions by the use of installers, the most popular of which is WSLDL which already has a growing selection of distribution support. If neither of these have the distribution you're looking for, then this article is going to explain how to setup your own distribution of choice for WSL.
