If you use it Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) on Windows 10, the news below is for you. Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) will support Flatpak very soon. So you'll be able to install new versions of apps the same way you do on mainstream Linux distributions.
Flatpak (formerly xdg-app) is a utility for software development, package management, and application virtualization on Linux computers. It provides a sandbox environment within which the users applications can run in isolation from the rest of the system.
Flatpak allows installation of bleeding-edge applications. Flatpak's packages are accompanied by all the required sub-packages, so you do not need to recompile the code to install the latest version of an application.
Alexander Larsson, the lead developer and creator of the Flatpak package system, announced thecase of Flatpak on WSL at application blog.
The project is still in development, but anyway, the news is amazing. One day, it will be able to run in a Linux operating environment running Windows 10 with just a few clicks.
