Use Ubuntu through Windows WSL

Instead of a VM, you can use WSL on Windows...it's actually quite nice!

We have instructions to setup your Windows environment. Ignore the part about installing Atom (unless you want it). If your computer is wiped by ITSD and needs a fresh setup, just redo the steps.

Use your Ubuntu VM

Feel free to use your VM from prior classes. It's up to you!

If you need to reinstall a fresh one, follow these instructions.
