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.

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!

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: github.com/craigloewen-msft/…

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 :) ) github.com/MicrosoftDocs/WSL…

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 github.com/Pavelevich/llm-ch…

What I loved the most about BUILD 2025 Spoilers: It has to do with WSL
Craig Loewen’s - @craigaloewen - highlight from #MSBuild 2025? #WSL is now fully open source. In this #OneDevQuestion, he shares what that means for developers, plus why he’s excited about Windows AI Foundry for running local AI models in your apps. More: msft.it/6015srOPF

(early)unpopular opinion: Microsoft Edit will replace Nano in some Linux distros as the "non-VIM based" editor. Open sourced, Rust, TUI with mouse support and few but important settings (line ending, format, tab spaces). The call me fanboy, the future is here Corsair 🏴‍☠️
