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.
After go has finished installing you're going to want to clone this repository and build the executable, this tool will allow us to extract the root filesystem from the docker image into a directory of our choosing.
