WSL comfort setup scripts enable you to bring your preferred tools and workflows to Windows - like homebrew, zsh, starship, and more.

Surface RTX Spark Dev Box is a purpose-built dev box powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark silicon, delivering up to 1 petaflop of AI compute paired with 128 GB of unified memory shared across the CPU and GPU. Comes with a developer-optimized Windows 11 experience so you can build, test, and run AI and agent workloads locally without setup friction or unpredictable cloud costs.

With Microsoft Foundry on Windows, local AI is no longer a compromise - it is a platform for breakthrough developer experiences. From efficient small models to agentic reasoning to frontier coding, this is unmetered intelligence on Windows.

Aion 1.0 Instruct is our next-generation small language model, smaller, faster, and more efficient than our current Windows OS SLM. Designed from the ground up for on-device workloads, Aion 1.0 Instruct powers everyday text intelligence (summarization, rewrite, intents, accessibility) and extends beyond Windows APIs with integration into the Edge browser and availability as open weights. Developers can start experimenting with Aion 1.0 Instruct in preview today in Edge insider channels and as an open source model in July on Hugging Face.

Intelligent Terminal brings context-aware intelligence to your favorite agents directly into a terminal based experience to help debug errors and run multi-step tasks so you can stay in your flow. Available in experimental preview.

WSL containers offer a built-in way to create, run and interact with Linux containers using familiar CLI & API. Coming soon to public preview.
