[quote=Anonymous]We use it (WSL2) at my company for development. We have Ubuntu as the base Linux. It works great. It does require admin access to enable/install though. But once running, the dev can pretty much do whatever they need - they have root within the instance. Your windows admins will have little understanding of how it works which is a plus and a minus. There are occasionally weirdness with networking, but those were easy enough to work around. We have it tied into docker desktop for windows. It works well with vscode (make sure to install into user space in windows otherwise every patch requires admin). We have java, node/react, python, cloud devs(AWS) all using it for local development. Although we deploy into AWS primarily for testing and production. If you can't get that but can have docker, then I guess you could install an image with Linux on it and go that route, but wsl is a good way to go. [/quote]
