Provisioning your Windows by Ansible from WSL

First, follow the Ansible offical setup of Windows hosts: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/windows.html

Next, get the WSL to run Ansible provisioning: https://www.microsoft.com/ja-jp/p/ubuntu-1804-lts/9n9tngvndl3q (This project only supports Ubuntu). After Ubuntu setup in WSL, install Ansible by apt: apt install ansible.

Clone the source:

git clone https://github.com/Wintus/Ansible-WSL
cd Ansible-WSL

Edit the group_vars/ and/or host_vars/ to setup connection. For details, see the guide:
