Windows 10 Creators Update: new features for Windows Console

Some essential reading about the Windows 10 Anniversary Update (AU) and Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Around 2 years ago, a new Windows Console team was formed to own give the Console its biggest overhaul in more than 30 years!

One of the key drivers for the Console overhaul was the need to enable the Console to render the output of Linux command-line tools & applications running on WSL. The team are also performing some much needed surgery & modernization to the Console’s underpinnings and internals, which will allow for far more rapid and exciting feature development in the future.
