Raft is a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) distribution manager in native C#/XAML for Windows 10 applying Fluent design principles. Raft makes managing WSL distros on your Windows 10 device easy.

Following are the first things we will be working on in the next year:

WSL 2 Support:
- ✔ Change the default WSL between versions 1 and 2.
- ✔ Change the WSL version for any installed distribution.
- Specify the WSL version upon restoring a snapshot.
- ✔ Enable WSL 2 support in Windows if it is needed.
Windows Terminal:
- ✔ Run any installed distribution with Windows Terminal instead of the default console.
- Offer to install Windows Terminal if it is needed.
- ✔ Update distro data in Windows Terminal like name and icon.
- Launch distributions directly by right-clicking Raft WSL in the taskbar.
GUI applications shortcuts:
- Have a special section for all the icons available for the applications installed in all distributions.
- See also separated by distribution.
- Have the option to create the shortcuts in Start Menu.
- Launch applications directly by right-clicking Raft WSL in the taskbar.
Custom distributions:
- Show any installed distributions that do not have a match to any in the store, in a special section.
- Offer as many features available with the official distros to the custom ones. (if it is possible)
- Import any snapshot as a custom distribution.
- Move distributions to another place (for example from C: to D:)
- Duplicate distributions. The duplicate becomes a custom distribution.
- Import a custom distribution from a tar.gz.
- Have the option to create shortcuts in Start Menu to the custom distros.
- Launch custom distros directly by right-clicking Raft WSL in the taskbar.
- Specify where the custom distributions will be installed.
- All the WSL 2 improvements will apply for custom distributions.

Stay tuned!
