The binary is only one part of the puzzle (and largely solved by WSL). Installation/uninstallation and desktop integration is just as much of a hassle.

- cycomanic 2y agoI don't get the argument, if the binary part is solved by WSL it isn't useless is it? Otherwise why would MS invest so much resources into it?
- bjourne 2y agoWSL can do a lot more than just run Linux binaries.
- int_19h 2y agoI don't think you can reasonably assume that people have WSL set up on Windows for the purposes of shipping desktop software. Nor does it cover Mac.
- duped 2y agoWell, there's orb on mac which is in some ways better/faster than WSL
