Develop cross-platform applications, improve your data science or web development workflows and manage IT infrastructure without leaving Windows.\n\nRead about the [distributions of Ubuntu available for WSL](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/wsl/en/latest/reference/distributions/).\n\nKey features:\n  - Efficient command line utilities including bash, ssh, git, apt, npm, pip and many more\n  - Manage Docker containers with improved performance and startup times\n  - Leverage GPU acceleration for AI/ML workloads with NVIDIA CUDA\n  - A consistent development to deployment workflow when using Ubuntu in the cloud\n  - 5 years of security patching with Ubuntu Long Term Support (LTS) releases\n\nFor more information about Ubuntu WSL and how Canonical supports developers please visit:\n\nhttps://ubuntu.com/wsl\n\n\u003e [!NOTE]\n\u003e The **documentation** for Ubuntu on WSL can be found at [https://documentation.ubuntu.com/wsl/](documentation.ubuntu.com/wsl).\n\u003e The source for that documentation can be found in the [Ubuntu Pro for WSL repo](https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-pro-for-wsl).\n\u003e If you are interested in contributing to the documentation, please submit your Issues and Pull Requests there.\n\n# This repository\n\nThis repository contains code relevant to the Ubuntu distribution on WSL.\nIt builds on top of [Microsoft's distro launcher reference implementation](https://github.com/microsoft/WSL-DistroLauncher).\n\n\u003e [!TIP]\n\u003e There is a [newer method](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/wsl/build-custom-distro) for creating the Ubuntu on WSL distro.\n\u003e We will be updating the Ubuntu on WSL documentation as this method is adopted.\n\u003e Refer to this [blog about installing Ubuntu with the new distribution format](https://ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-wsl-new-format-available).\n\n# Issues \u0026 Contact\n\nYou are welcome to [create a new issue](https://github.com/ubuntu/WSL/issues/new/choose) on this repository if you find bugs you believe may be particular to Ubuntu running on WSL.\n\nFeel free to otherwise head over to [Microsoft's WSL page](https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/) on GitHub if your report is not specific to Ubuntu but rather more general to WSL.\n\nWe also have a [page on Launchpad](https://launchpad.net/ubuntuwsl); we check it less often but you may find part of the community there. [Ubuntu's Discourse page](https://discourse.ubuntu.com/c/wsl2/27) has news and interesting discussions about Ubuntu on WSL.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fubuntu%2Fwsl","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fubuntu%2Fwsl","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fubuntu%2Fwsl/lists"}
