    Distrod is a meta-distro for WSL 2 which installs Ubuntu, Arch, Debian, Gentoo, etc. with systemd in a minute for you. Distrod also has built-in auto-start feature on Windows startup and port forwarding ability.

    Because I haven't seen it mentioned yet: you can use distrod to easily get Arch running in WSL, with systemd support.

  • ArchWSL

    ArchLinux based WSL Distribution. Supports multiple install.

    https://github.com/yuk7/ArchWSL is the place i got my setup going, could technically get it from a base arch iso too i think. works just like any other distro
