    I tested it in WSL on Windows 10 and it ran great!

    I don't think you need WSL to run in node can be installed on Windows..

    Yes, however, I prefer running a BBS in linux so figured it was worth a try :)

    I prefer Linux myself. My family however must use Windows.

    Ironically, my family prefers Linux Mint. They are by no means technical.
    They are your basic n00b sort of folks. However, they got so frustrated with Windows that they told me "replace this with something better, or I'm
    throwing this computer out the literal window!" <G>

    I guess the combination of frustration and desperation can open minds to
    things that they might not have otherwise been open to prior. Linux Mint
    being easy for Windows users to adapt to, absolutely was helpful.

    Though Linux is a bit lacking when it comes to supporting main stream games
    and such, they are all more into "game systems" for their gaming fix, so all
    is well on that front.

    Great explanation Oli! Thanks for the education. I do see number 4 as
    an answer looking for. I suspect it requires a Linux OS and not
    windows.

    It can run anywhere node.js runs including windows.

    Node.js (and thus ENiG) has native Windows support. I've never run it under WSL
    myself, so I'm glad you did and and that it works! :X

    Yeah, I am still trying to wrap my head around the ideal dev environment in Windows. My work computer is a Mac and my daily driver is a Windows machine.
    I suppose I should start learning about Windows IDEs and things of that
    nature instead of insisting on doing things strictly the unix way...I don't think there's any clever way to hook a Windows IDE up to WSL to do node
    stuff. :/
