This project provides an easy way to install a custom, minimal, arch linux distribution as the WSL host.

If you want to try it right now, clone and run the alwsl batch file from a non-admin command prompt.

Update Mar 2017

We are happy to announce Fastly as a sponsor for a reliable and global delivery of alwsl root images and future updates. Fastly commited a monthly four-figure credit to the alwsl project which will help with alwsl's transition into a new version later this month.

Update Jan 2017

We are currently negotiating with potential sponsors for a more stable delivery system for rootfs images and future updates to guarantee availability in all region at all times. In the meantime I have temporarily switched to a different internal CDN that should be faster. If you still have an old copy of the batch script, where the CDN URL is not "antiquant.com", please download the current one!

The next version will be released if a sponsor contract is signed. Current status: signing.
