Setup a modern development environment on Windows 10

 

Since the ’90s, I have switched back and forth between Windows and various Linux distributions as my primary operating system. And almost every time ending up with both, either by dual booting or one or the other running in a virtual machine using a 3rd party software like VirtualBox. But when Microsoft introduced WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) a few years back and later with WSL 2, this has quickly become my preferred setup when developing.
