# WSL2 development environment
2+
3+
This is a collection of Ansible scripts helping with the creation and maintenance of your WSL2 development environment.
4+
5+
If you're not already using it, we recommend you to install [Windows Terminal](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9n0dx20hk701?hl=en-US&gl=US).
6+
It is a modern tool that incorporates the power of multiple already known command-line applications like `Windows PowerShell`, `Linux shell`, and more...
7+
8+
## Check if WLS2 is already available
9+
10+
Open `Windows Terminal` and execute the following command:
11+
12+
```shell
13+
wsl -v
14+
```
15+
16+
The output should look similar to this:
17+
18+
```text
19+
WSL version: 2.2.4.0
20+
Kernel version: 5.15.153.1-2
21+
WSLg version: 1.0.61
22+
MSRDC version: 1.2.5326
23+
Direct3D version: 1.611.1-81528511
24+
DXCore version: 10.0.26091.1-240325-1447.ge-release
25+
Windows version: 10.0.22631.3737
26+
```
27+
28+
If the output starts with `WSL version: 2.x.x.x`, you are ready to use **WSL2** and can proceed to [install AlmaLinux 10](wsl/README.md).
29+
30+
## Install WSL2
31+
32+
Before proceeding with the installation, please consult Microsoft's [documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install#prerequisites) regarding the minimum requirements for running WSL2.
33+
34+
Once you identified that your machine can run WSL2, open the `Run` prompt by pressing `Win` + `r`, type `OptionalFeatures` in the dialog and press `Enter`.
35+
This will open a window where you can turn Windows features on/off.
36+
Make sure that the below features are activated (checked):
37+
38+
* `Hyper-V` (including its sub-features)
39+
* `Virtual Machine Platform`
40+
* `Windows Subsystem for Linux`
41+
42+
> If any of the above features are missing, then first you need to install them manually using [this guide](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-manual) and then continue with the below steps.
43+
44+
Click `Ok` and restart your computer.
45+
46+
Open Microsoft Store, search for `Windows Subsystem for Linux` and install it.
47+
48+
Make sure that version **2** of WSL is set as default by executing the below command in Windows Terminal:
49+
50+
```shell
51+
wsl --set-default-version 2
52+
```
53+
54+
To test, run again the following command:
55+
56+
```shell
57+
wsl -v
58+
```
59+
60+
This time the output should display `WSL version: 2.x.x.x`, which means that your system is ready for using **WSL2** and you can proceed to [install AlmaLinux 10](wsl/README.md).
