Recommended to install Waydroid in a brand new Ubuntu 25.04 install. Waydroid needs a custom linux kernel. Actually just needs latest kernel for WSL2 with just these changes before compiling:
CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=y
CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES="binder,hwbinder,vndbinder"
| javascript:(function(){try{navigator.clipboard.readText().then(function(t){if(t){var e=window.open("","_blank","width=800,height=600");e.document.open(),e.document.write(t),e.document.close()}else alert("Clipboard is empty. Please copy some text to the clipboard first.")}).catch(function(t){console.error("Failed to read clipboard contents: ",t),alert("An error occurred while trying to access the clipboard. Please ensure your browser allows clipboard access.")})}catch(t){console.error("An error occurred:",t),alert("An error occurred while trying to open the new window with the clipboard content.")}})();//bookmarklet_title: HTML Preview from Clipboard |
Note
If you want to use Wayland in WSLg in a simpler setup, you can try the WSLg (Wayland) tutorial.
In this tutorial, we will setup GUI in WSL2. No additional software outside WSL (like VcXsrv or GWSL) is required. You will find this tutorial very similar to the one that replaces Xorg with Xvnc. Indeed, it's pretty much the same tutorial, with some few changes.
The key component we need to install is the desktop metapackage you want (GNOME, KDE, Xfce, Budgie, etc), and after that, replace the default Xorg by a script that calls Xwayland instead.
For this setup, I will use Ubuntu 24.04, and install GNOME Desktop. Unfortunately older versions of Ubuntu lack some fundamental things, so we cannot reproduce it in older versions (at least not fully). Since the key components aren't bound to Ubuntu or GNOME, you can use your favorite distro and GUI. Check the [Sample screenshot

To setup native Linux, see this gist
Start an elevated or administrator Command Prompt.
Copy the following command and paste it in the Command Prompt window:
reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\notepad.exe" /v "Debugger" /t REG_SZ /d "\"%ProgramFiles%\Notepad++\notepad++.exe\" -notepadStyleCmdline -z" /f
To undo (reverse) the replacement, use the following command:

Update April 2021: See this comment for a smoother install of Wallabag 2.4.x. I'll leave this gist up for legacy.
Please note that this trick works with the latest release of Wallabag (2.3.7). There is no guarantee that it'll continue to work. Eventually, Wallabag will drop support of SQLite so this setup isn't future-proof.
This is the last version with SQLite support that works in a subfolder (like mydomain.tld/wallabag, although deploying Wallabag in a subfolder isn't officially supported). It will allow you to create an user and start the configuration. Get it here: https://static.wallabag.org/releases/, then tar xvf wallabag-release-2.2.3.tar.gz. If this release doesn't work, use the 2.2.2 one. Normally, you will have a file app/config/parameters.yml like that:
