The problem with WSL is that it's young so some integrations are still not perfect. For example, the integration with VSCode : https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/25033 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/25033 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/24967 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/24967 But both teams, WSL and VSCode, are very, very responsive. I'm pretty sure in a couple of months everything will be fine.
