Nice article - I think the WSL is amazing, and a great step in the right direction for Windows.
I've had great experiences with nvm - it's a node version manager which lets you install multiple version of node concurrently. Works really well when different projects use different versions of node - on Linux (and likely WSL) you can even hook it up to automatically switch node versions in certain directories, and anything you install globally (npm install -g <package>) is installed only for the version currently selected.
