Visual Studio Code has an awesome extension for Windows Subsystem For Linux called WSL.
If you're running WSL, you'll need to place all of your development files and folders inside of apache on Linux. The write time is too slow across operating systems.
Using the WSL extension for VS Code, you can access your files from WSL inside of Visual Studio Code and have all features available. It treats your WSL instance as a local code base (which it is, really!).
This is a game changer.
Install the WSL extension by opening VS Code and clicking on Extensions and searching WSL and installing it.
You can open VS Code from the linux terminal by typing "code ." in the directory you want to open.
