For the unaware WSL = Window’s Subsystem Linux. Basically, Windows integrates a Linux commandline within itself. It can also run Linux Virtual Machines using HyperV, a great way for Windows Users to try out distros and find one that they like.

I haven’t played with it much but I think it’s moreso to enable developers to use the Linux commands they’re familiar with even on Windows machines, sort of like a Linux flavored CMD Prompt.
The Virtual Machines tho can do anything a Linux can do, but the filesystem remains separate.
