When working with WSL, you may find you need to use utilities or files from Windows in your workflow or vice versa. Thankfully, there are several ways that you can blur the barrier between your WSL distro and Windows allowing a much more productive environment than Windows, or a Linux Distro, would provide on their own.
wslpath
wslpath is a tool built into WSL that allows for simple conversion of paths between WSL and their Windows equivalents and vice versa (Figure 9-1):
wslpath C:\\Users\\Hayden returns /mnt/c/Users/Hayden
wslpath -w /mnt/c/Users/Hayden returns C:\Users\Hayden ...
