2.LXSS Manager keeps lists of which distributions are installed and which are running and then calls the Host Compute Service.

3.The Host Compute Service is part of the Hyper-V virtualization technology that makes the WSL2 possible; this will launch a lightweight utility VM using the Linux kernel.

4.The VM is then mapped with your Linux distribution’s file system, and an init process is called to initialize and run your application.

5.After this, a relay is set up from standard input from the Windows side to your application, bash in our case, so that communication is set up between the Linux and Windows sides, so that we can see what is happening inside our Linux application when a command is run from the Windows side.

Basically, Windows standard input sends commands to the socket, then these commands are read from the socket in the lightweight guest operating system, and finally this socket is standard input for the Linux application such as “bash.”
