So this is a native Linux app, and the window appears on the WIndows desktop?

Correct. WSL has the ability to draw x11 (Maybe even Wayland) to the Windows desktop. It took a bit to load, but it worked as expected. I wanted to try this with UAK since I knew it makes x11 calls directly.

I probably won't use this for game development but WSL has been really awesome for testing code compatibility for my libraries. I can now make my build scripts all in bash and it'll all be the same on Windows, Mac and Linux.
