Interesting open projects from Microsoft

I think the simplest solution is to specify curl.exe if you are using Windows PowerShell. In PowerShell Core the alias has been removed - so using curl there should now work if you are on the insider build.

The other way to come at it is if you have WSL setup you can just use wsl to call a Bash command. e.g.

wsl curl --help

I’m surprised nobody has brought up the Windows Subsystem for Linux which allows you to run a Linux command line environment on Windows 10. Microsoft worked closely with Ubuntu to bring that one to life.

I don’t know why I didn’t include it. I actually made a wiki post on WSL as well that im working to expand.
