Hello everyone,

I am Ashutosh Pandey and I want to be a part of this year's GSoC program as
a mentee. I am doing my Bachelor's in Computer Science at ABESIT Ghaziabad, India.

I am interested in Dev-Ops and Full-Stack side of things and I have built
many projects where I have utilized my knowledge.

Now coming to the help part

I'm on a Windows machine and I have WSL enabled I'm using Ubuntu since
Debian has many packages I would like to contribute to Python and C code.
and I would prefer to work in my WSL ubuntu distro since it's closer to
Debian than Windows.

- Should I set up the development environment on Windows or on WSL?
- In both cases(dev environment on Windows or WSL) is there any
step-by-step guide for building Debian on Windows or on WSL?

Thanks in advance and apologies if formatting isn't right.

There is a WSL2 Debian version: install that and use that instead of Ubuntu
(or a Windows dev environment).

This should be readily availabe from the Microsoft store. The latest stable version of Debian is 11.6 at the moment: you should update the Debian you download by using apt to do so.

Enjoy using Debian.

For your own sake please don't!
At least dual boot your machine with real Debian. WSL is too immature to be used as a development environment.

I can second that. Not that I have any personal experience with WSL, but I can tell you that dual boot is your friend.

Twenty-five years ago I got started on Linux in a dual boot environment. Slowly I started booting into Linux more and DOS/Windows less. Now, very few of my machines even have a Windows installation. It’s a good way to slowly migrate while enjoying a full Linux distro instead of a hobbled one.
