Ubuntu on Windows 10 WSL

Prerequisites

Have WLS installed and enabled with Ubuntu 20.04 installed, see "Install Ubuntu on Windows 10".

In Windows create the following folder structure, where it's suitable for you on the C: drive Documents\workspace\microting, in this example we asume it's located like this: C:\Users\yourname\Documents\workspace\microting In order for you to be able to do git clones in Ubuntu onto your C: drive, we have to change the mounting of the C: drive. Open the Ubuntu window and execute, see "Chmod/Chown WSL Improvements":

sudo umount /mnt/c
sudo mount -t drvfs C: /mnt/c -o metadata

When that is done, we can symbolic link the directory structure, to ensure our Linux scripts work as expected in WSL, so execute the following:

ln -s /mnt/c/Users/yourname/Documents/ Documents

Now we have the following structure in our home directory of the linux user: /home/ubuntu/Documents From now on all sh scripts can be executed inside the Ubuntu terminal and you can either follow the Ubuntu/OSX guides or use node/C# from within Windows and follow the rest of the guide.

Step 1:

On google type "mySQL windows" or go to this link:

cd %HOMEPATH%

mkdir Documents\workspace microting

cd Documents\workspace\microting
