In this post I showed you how you can turn Windows 11 and Windows 10 with WSL into a fully fledged development environment. Here are the settings and tools I use for DevOps/SysOps on Windows. It may take some getting used to, but if you’re as shortcut-Ninja as I’m (I alt-tab, ctrl-c/ctrl-v a lot), you can work pretty fast in this set up.
Sharing SSH keys between Windows and WSL 2, if you don’t want to copy over your ssh keys from Windows to WSL Linux. The OpenSSH config offers the option to share keys using an IdentityFile directive.
This post helps you in setting up an not-so-standard (but fun) development environment for your static site created in Hugo. This was how to install and configure Hugo for static site development in WSL on Windows 11/10.
How to install and configure Monit monitoring in Windows 10 WSL. Set up a Monit monitoring service for your websites and services.
