@dhh Hello David, we have been working with WSL since its beginnings, happy to help you have a solid Linux distro on WSL. I'll also contact you with my personal account to invite you to the WSL support group.

Interesting, the chatgpt app works directly on WSL. #WSL2 #ChatGPT @craigaloewen

Have you tried ollama on Fedora Remix for WSL 43 with Vulkan backend using dzn (Vulkan over D3D12)?

llama_prepare_model_devices: using device Vulkan0 (Microsoft Direct3D12 (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti)) (unknown id) - 16107 MiB free

I know with NVIDIA you can use CUDA, but for others?

The ability to wrangle these immensely powerful, yet dangerously capricious, agents into a productive harness that produces high quality systems — is the software engineering challenge of this decade.

@unixterminal @ibuildthecloud @PengwinLinux @PengwinLinux is my daily driver for WSL, has been since the start. Love it!

As a PSA, there is no such thing as WSL 3! I've seen some articles talking about it, and it's not currently a thing.

However we did just announce WSL container (Or WSLc for short which might be where the confusion is coming from) and that will be available in just a week or so!

[Craig Loewen @craigaloewen]

I made a repo called "Omarchy-WSL" that lets you build a version of Omarchy you can install in WSL. So far just a personal community project that I've put online:

Want a sneak peek at WSLc?
Any guesses on what the pattern is for naming the containers?

[Craig Loewen @craigaloewen]

WSL now has built in Linux container support with both a CLI and an API, announced today and coming soon by the end of the month!

You can read more about it here (While our official docs are building :) )

Do you know that you can install Copilot CLI via pengwin-setup even on WSL 1?

I always wondered which Ollama model my machine could run properly.

Now you can easily do that using llms-checker

It's a CLI tool that checks your system specs and recommends the best models to run on Ollama based on what your machine

npm install -g llm-checker

Pengwin and Fedora Remix for WSL are 50% off for Black Friday. These are perpetual licenses with unlimited updates, but they require continuous engineering investment. If you want to support our roadmap, consider a Raft WSL subscription and share our catalog: https://t.co/AfCvONVqTr
