Before you start

A few useful details.

What does the hub add to WSLg?

Microsoft's WSLg provides Linux GUI support on Windows. WSLg App Hub adds a visual catalog and a central interface for browsing, installing, and launching supported apps. Try it for seven days to see whether that convenience fits your workflow.

What do I need installed?

The currently published app requires Windows 11, WSL 2 with WSLg, and a Linux distribution. The hub helps with WSL setup tasks; Windows setup can require administrator access, a terminal, and a restart. App installation can require your Linux password.

Does it work with every Linux app?

App availability depends on your distribution and configured package sources. Some Linux apps have additional requirements. Start with a supported app in the catalog and use the trial to check your own environment.

How do I try it or get help?

Open the Microsoft Store listing and choose the free trial. If setup or launching gets confusing, contact contact@treebytesoftware.com with the step you reached and your Windows and Linux distribution versions.
