Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is an optional Windows feature that allows you to run in order to run Bash shell scripts and Linux command-line applications without using a virtual machine. WSL is designed as a development tool and not as a Linux production tool. It is installed under Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off – > Windows Subsystem for Linux.
Further documentation can be found at learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/about and the Windows Command Line Tools Blog.
Update: WSL 2 is the latest major version change. WSLg (Windows Subsystem for Linux GUI) allows users to run Linux GUI applications (X11 and Wayland) on Windows.
