Microsoft has announced that it's now possible to run graphical Linux apps in Windows 10 using the Windows Subsystem for Linux. This feature was first released to Windows Insiders.
As this year's Build developer event kicks off, Microsoft has announced a major new feature for Windows 10 - the ability to run Linux apps with a GUI. This is a major expansion of the Windows Subsystem for Linux, which already lets you run command line-based Linux apps, and it means you can now use GUI apps without having to set up a traditional virtual machine with a Linux distribution.
Interestingly, this feature has actually been in testing with Windows Insiders on the Dev channel since April, but it isn't coming through a typical Windows 10 feature update. It's just available now for existing versions of Windows 10 and you can start using it right away.
