Fedora WSL Installer

Hello everyone! I am proud to announce my new utility!

I often use WSL to do stuff since I can't install Linux directly for reasons, and I noticed that there is no easy way to get vanilla Fedora, only Ubuntu or Debian etc... So after days of searching and finding nothing, I decided to create my own solution, at least I avoid going crazy and maybe others need it too.

Usage

  • Run iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient). DownloadString('https://www.okazakee.dev/wsl-installer')) in your powershell.
  • Choose an option from menu.

Requirements

  • Powershell 7.
  • Docker Desktop.

Features

  • Installs Fedora WSL.
  • Change the WT profile icon.

Working on:

  • Automatically set start menu shortcut for WSL.
  • Automatically check if Docker is running.
  • Store vars in tmp file, check if it exists before asking user.

The project is completely open-source all details on the dedicated GitHub page.
