Create additional installation steps for Debian and Kali. Need appx link from their Store developer account

Any updates to this? I imagine completing this issue will also allow update of https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-on-server as well.

@DarthSpock give it a moment, this issue was just created 9 days ago and there was just a huge Microsoft conference in there as well.

See my comment at https://github.com/Microsoft/windows-dev-box-setup-scripts/issues/32

This was actually completed as asked already. All distros except Wlinux have an offline appx available. Wlinux is unable to perform this functionality and provide all the features that it offers unfortunately since you have to pay for it in the Store.

I mention this because what I saw in the commit https://github.com/Microsoft/windows-dev-box-setup-scripts/pull/78/commits/969035c1a216b46f80eee1c0b870c01aca7bb827 for SLES and openSUSE won't work based on my experience.
