DEV SETUP

Ubuntu (WSL) development environment quick setup.

This project is inspired by Omakub.

I've destroyed enough times the VMs I use for software development and setting up everything everytime is time consuming. And ain't nobody got time for that.

Maybe in the future I'll add support for other distros like Mint or Fedora since I've used them and plan on using them again in the future on bare metal.
