A tutorial to use GUI in WSL2 replacing original XServer by Xvnc, allowing WSL to work like native Linux, including login screen

WSL2 with GUI using Xvnc

In this tutorial, we will setup GUI in WSL2, and access it using VNC. No additional software outside WSL (like VcXsrv) is required, except, of course, a VNC Viewer (RealVNC, TightVNC, TigerVNC, UVNC, etc, all of them might work flawlessly).

The key component we need to install is tigervnc-standalone-server.

For this setup, I will use Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa, unfortunately 22.04 does not work), and install GNOME Desktop. Since the key components aren't bound to Ubuntu or GNOME, you can use your favorite distro and GUI. Check the Sample screenshots section for examples.

So let's go. First, we need a working WSL2 installation.

First you have to define the scalar type in the GraphQL schema:

scalar Date

Then you have to provide a resolver for the scalar type. Here's an example implementation using Luxon:

import { DateTime } from 'luxon';

makeExecutableSchema({

Deploying to Elastic Beanstalk via CircleCi 2.0

Deploying to Elastic Beanstalk via CircleCi 2.0

I got to here after spending hours trying to deploy to an Elastic Beanstalk instance via CircleCi 2.0 so I thought I'd write up what worked for me to hopefully help others. Shout out to RobertoSchneiders who's steps for getting it to work with CircleCi 1.0 were my starting point.

For the record, I'm not the most server-savvy of developers so there may be a better way of doing this.

Setting up Cmder to use bash by default

Set up cmder to use msysgit / bash by default

  • Install cmder_mini (msysgit is already installed, so no need for full version)
  • In Cmder, open settings: Win + Alt + P
  • Under Startup > Tasks, add a task called {bash} with the following settings:
    • Task parameters (set icon):
      • For Cmder icon: /icon "%CMDER_ROOT%\cmder.exe"
      • For Git icon: /icon "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\git.ico"
    • Commands (open Git's bash shell):
  • "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" -l -new_console:d:%USERPROFILE%
