You don't actually need Windows Insider for this. You can install a Linux distro with WSL 2 to use for Vue development projects and Vue Storefront just with normal Windows 10. docs.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/ins...
Highly recommend using VS Code with the Remote Dev Environment extension for WSL to make things easier though: docs.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/tut...
You also should make sure that you are creating your project files on the virtual Linux files system, the same one that you install Vue and any tools on, not the mounted Windows C-drive file system... or else your build and installs will go REALLY slow because they are crossing file systems. Just use the command explorer.exe . (be sure to include the period at the end) to open your current file system from your command line in Windows File Explorer. docs.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/faq...
That actually makes things easier! At that time I really thought you needed to be an insider to access WSL2. Thanks for taking the time to comment, that was really helpful!
