WLinux the new distribution specifically for Windows 10 costs

: Το Windows Subsystem for Linux που υπάρχει στο Windows 10 επιτρέπει στους χρήστες του λειτουργικού της Microsoft να τρέχουν διανομές Linux μέσα από το Windows 10. Έτσι μέχρι σήμερα είναι εφικτό να τρέξετε τις διανομές Ubuntu, Debian και Kali.

It looks like a new distribution has been developed optimized specifically for Windows 10 and Windows Subsystem for Linux.WLinux

The new distribution is called WLinux, and focuses on the packages associated with the Windows Subsystem for Linux, as well as the customizations needed to take full advantage of this feature of Windows 10.

“Considering the high degree of customization of Linux, I thought that a new distribution for WSL should be created with reasonable defaults for use in WSL. I identified and implemented an initial set of customizations and features that could be used by many distribution developers as a starting point for their own , says the founder of Whitewater Foundry, which developed the distribution.

But what is important to mention is that WLinux that is through the Microsoft Store does not come for free. It costs $ 19,99, and at the moment there is a 50% discount, ie it comes to $ 10. Of course we do not recommend buying it, unless you are a developer and find a good idea to use it in a project.

The WLinux distribution includes support for most Linux applications, development tools such as zsh shell, git, python 3.7 (all preinstalled), wslu, and plugins for apps like Google Chrome, Visual Studio, and pip3 for python.

The development team promises "faster patching than any upstream Linux specifically for WSL bugs" and states that many redundant packages such as , have been removed for more stability and security.
