It allows users to run programs compiled for Linux on Windows without dual-booting or using a traditional hypervisor like VMware / VirtualBox.

WSL2 runs a real Linux kernel in a simplified version of Hyper-V. Because it uses a real Linux kernel, it is compatible with more applications, but it also uses more RAM.
