About

wslm is a single self-contained terminal UI (Rust + ratatui) to manage WSL distributions on

Windows from one screen: list distros with state, version and on-disk size; start/stop them;

open shells inline or in a new Windows Terminal tab; watch live WSL VM memory/CPU gauges with

sparklines; do managed export/import (tar/vhdx); install distros from the online catalog; and

edit .wslconfig / wsl.conf. State detection is locale-independent and there is no telemetry.

Copy a command tailored to that specific architecture, type, and scope - useful when winget would otherwise pick a different default.

Security

No known CVEs for wslm.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
