Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is actually sufficiently Linux to run and install many linux commands such as gcc, make, and ddd. This is not a port of Unix tools to Windows but apparently genuine Ubuntu Linux.
I battled endlessly trying to get VMWare and Oracle VirtualBox to run linuxCNC on my PC, so that I code stuff in the cool of the house before ftping it to the shop.
This is sufficient. I can code and debug in the house. It would be nice to run linuxCNC for testing operation in the linuxCNC GUi, but this is good enough.
