> Things mostly just work already. To try it out, first generate an

> Then copy the result to your Windows system and run:

> ┌────
> │ wsl --import guix ./guix/ image.tar.gz
> └────

> You can now run Guix System under WSL:

> The approach I took is copied from the [NixOS-WSL] project. Since WSL

> root user’s shell to a script that boots the system and then starts a
> user login shell.
