Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL2) lets you run Linux on Windows using a lightweight virtual machine. This means you can use Linux tools and apps directly from Windows, which is great for developers. WSL2 is faster and more efficient than its predecessor, WSL1, because it uses a complete Linux kernel. This setup allows for better performance and compatibility with Linux applications. Users can also customize their WSL2 kernel by building it from source, which can be useful for adding specific features or fixing issues.
