+tagline: |
+  WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is required for running Microsoft Linux.
+---
+
+## Cheat Sheet
+
+> WSL (v1) is not emulation, but rather a Linux syscall wrapper around the
+> Windows Kernel.
+
+After installing WSL and **Rebooting** you will be able to install Linux
+variants from the Windows 10 Store:
+
+- [Ubuntu Linux 20.04](https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9n6svws3rx71)
+- [Alpine WSL](https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9p804crf0395)
+
+### Admin Privileges Required
+
+It is not possible to install WSL without Admin privileges.
+
+You _will_ need to allow the installer to run as Admin when asked.
+
+### Reboot Required
+
+You will not be able to use WSL without rebooting.
+
+### Raw PowerShell Command
+
+```pwsh
+powershell -Command "Start-Process cmd -Verb RunAs -ArgumentList '/c cd /d %CD% && dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart'"
+```
