Hi Alex,

Somehow I hadn’t noticed this patch series before…

Alex Griffin <a@ajgrf.com> skribis:

That seems pretty fun.

You say it’s work in progress; what exactly is missing at this point?

At first sight, it looks mostly ready to me.  What’s missing is a
section like “Running Guix under WSL”, maybe next to “Running Guix in a
VM”.  WDYT?

Better yet would be a “System Images” section under “System
Configuration”, with a subsection dedicated to WSL images.

Ludo’.
