Technical requirements

This chapter assumes that a Linux distribution is installed inside WSL2, as covered in Chapter 3, Configuring an Ubuntu Linux Profile, and that ZSH is installed, as covered in Chapter 5, Changing your Windows Terminal appearance, in the WSL2 customization with oh-my-zsh section. We'll be using Ubuntu 20.04 in this chapter, but the majority of tips apply to any Linux distribution. The configuration options we discuss in this chapter are available online at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Windows-Terminal-Tips-Tricks/tree/main/Chapter 09.
