Plutus Smart Contract Development: Running Plutus on Windows with WSL

Leaving comment for the algorithm 🙋‍♂️

Great video!!!

Do you have a discord or anything by chance?

i keep on receiving " E212 Can't open file for writing" when trying to create a directory and paste the cache. am i doing something wrong?

Josh, It is great to see you back making videos. I found your content very helpful. Keep up the good work.

I got a build error when running 'nix-shell' now when trying to run through the steps again, I get "trace: To materialize project.plan-nix for Agda entirely, pass a writable path as the `materialized` argument and run the 'updateMaterialized' script in 'passthru'." Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Just start my journey as the blockchain dev. Your content is very helpful for me. Thank you very much 🥰

THANKS!!!

I hope you do more of this as there are literally no content creators/ devs creating these types of content for CARDANO, post-Smart Contracts! Thanks for this man!

dApps development under Cardano as a next content would be great!

why does my nix shell take so long to build?

The plutus repo seems different. Can't find the plutus-playground-client and plutus-playground-server folder

Hello,
While in the nix shell, it still tells me that plutus-playground-server command does not exist

[nix-shell:~/plutus-apps/plutus-playground-client]$ plutus-playground-server
bash: plutus-playground-server: command not found

btw this is an old version of the repo since plutus playground is now in plutus-apps. I tried it in there and it didnt work either
Also, i set up the caching file but it sill took 9 hours to install. Is the 20GB of files here to stay or can i get rid of them?

Josh Let's be clear what you are doing here is very important and VERY HELPFULL.... THANKs. H

it finally worked for me thank you

Thank you for the great video. Its the best one I have found for getting the basic dev environment installed.

Anybody encountered the below when they enter the 'nix-shell' command?

error: could not set permissions on '/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user' to 755: Operation not permitted

I'm running wsl2 (Ubuntu 2004) on vscode for background.

Thanks for the video BTW

Great content! Thanks for the video. I'm running into an issue, though, I already installed nix with curl and yet I am not able to do nix-shell.

Nice tutorial sir

I run all the steps, console output looks good, but when I go to localhost:8009 all I get is a blank page with plutus-playground in the html headers

I have got an error .. default.nix is not availabe in plutus file

cant find plutus-playground-server
