I think this is a known issue with WSL 1 + NodeJS, and not with Devbox. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73616907/how-to-use-node-in-wsl-zsh-exec-format-error-node

We currently only recommend and support WSL 2. Nix does not work out of the box with WSL 1, and requires a few workarounds to get things working correctly: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_Installation_Guide#Windows_Subsystem_for_Linux_.28WSL.29

Thank you, I will switch to wsl2.
