Ubuntu and other distros coming to the Windows 10 store !
Since many years now, Microsoft has made some steps in direction of the Linux community, what do you think about it ? Is it a trojan horse or Microsoft is really in love with Linux ?
During Microsoft's build conference, Terry Myerson (EVP for Windows & Devices Group) made some announcements about the "Windows Subsystem for Linux"
Here's what you can expect:
1 - Microsoft is working with Ubuntu, SUSE and Fedora teams to bring their Linux distros to the Windows Store
2 - You will be able to download these distros from the store and install them side-by-side on your PC(s)
3 - You’ll be able to run one or more distros simultaneously if you wish
These new features will arrive in an up-coming Windows Insider build. If you’d like to be among the first to try-out these new distros, be sure to sign-up for the Windows Insider program, and configure your Win10 machine to install fast-ring builds.
Here is the website to register for the Insider program
