Do I need to install Linux?

I had to ask ChatGPT what was that WSL thing, and it says this

To use the app on your Windows system, you'll need to set up WSL. Here's a basic guide to getting started:

Enable WSL: First, you need to enable the Windows Subsystem for Linux feature. You can do this by opening PowerShell as an administrator and running the following command:

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart

Install a Linux distribution: Once WSL is enabled, you'll need to install a Linux distribution from the Microsoft Store. You can choose from several distributions like Ubuntu, Debian, or others.

Set up the Linux distribution: After installation, launch the Linux distribution you installed (e.g., Ubuntu) from the Start menu. This will initialize the distribution and prompt you to create a user account and password.

Install dependencies and the CLI app: Once inside the Linux distribution, you can use the terminal to install any dependencies required by the CLI app. Then, you can clone the app's repository from GitHub and follow any installation instructions provided by the developer.

Run the CLI app: After installation, you should be able to run the CLI app from within the Linux terminal just like any other Linux command.

So, is all of that what is required to run this on Windows?
