Course Description
Get started quickly with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2) today! Learn how to spin up Docker containers on your computer and use the fantastic new Windows Terminal. I have also added a Kali Linux video to show you how to get Kali working with WSL 2.
Microsoft now ships Windows 10 with a Linux Kernel! Amazing to see how Microsoft have changed in recent years. No longer do they hate Linux, but they have now embraced it. You can learn Linux, Docker and other technologies easily using WSL 2.
WARNING: There are still issues running WSL 2 with VMware Workstation and VirtualBox. Don't use WSL 2 if you needed nested virtualization with those hypervisors. Hopefully this will be resolved soon.
This course focuses on the following:
- WSL 2
- Docker using WSL 2
- Windows Terminal
- Visual Studio Code (Vs code)
- Kali Linux installation
I don't try to teach you everything about Linux, Docker or Windows. I'm only showing you how you can leverage these technologies to do amazing things. This course consists of practical demonstrations which you can follow - the best way to learn is hands-on learning, so follow me and set this up yourself.

This course is basic but extremely good explained, you get very fast valuable information. Seems that this course is designed to just jump in to any lecture, in consequence same content is repeated many times, e.g. actual setup, how to install WSL2, etc get quite redundant. Last kaly lecture is maybe 70 % redundant. I like to watch courses from the beginning till the end and not just start somewhere in the middle. But any way nice course and well explained

Sure, most if not all of this is available on DB's youtube channel but still very useful having it all in one place; gave me a very good overview of just what's possible with WSL2. Many thanks, David, for putting this together. You have another youtube sub. :-)

I am leaving this rate as it is just the tip of the iceberg of technological explanation. More educational instruction would be necssary to full integrate and execute commands.
By Lawrence Schlack on 7/8/2022
good well presented information, for me I should have slowed down the speed a little as I type slower than normal, besides that, good course to help you get on your feet with WSL2
By Denis Ribeiro on 2/17/2021
Muitos vídeos repetitivos. O curso poderia ser bem menor, com foco para iniciantes.
By Christopher Wells on 2/14/2021
The detail of what you have done and how you get there is exactly what users require. I thought I was missing videos however then waited and discovered you had the steps covered in the next video. e.g. Windows Terminal, you used it before informing users how to install it or get it.
