docs/Windows.md Outdated
There two versions of WSL as of november 23, 2019:

- WSL1: is the current stable version. Swift compilation and execution works but REPL and debugging (LLDB) hangs on startup.
- WSL2: Both REPL and debugging work in this verion. WSL2 is still in development and is available by downloading an insider build. Fortunately, installing WSL2 is ppretty simple (switch to insider, download an insider build and run some scripts). WSL2 can be installed [by following this link](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/wsl2-install).
