Description
Hey,
would like to see NixOS provided as a distribution for WSL.
It is already working fine by using https://github.com/nix-community/NixOS-WSL
If it's possible to publish it on Microsoft Store, I'm willing to help out.
Downstream issue: https://github.com/nix-community/NixOS-WSL/issues/63
Best regards
Jonas
