Opening a RDP connection to the Linux local instance

When WSLg is enabled, it's possible to access to the graphical user interface of your Linux distribution (in my case, it's Ubuntu).

If you don't have xrdp yet, you can install it by running:

sudo apt update && sudo apt -y upgrade
sudo apt-get install -y xrdp

The easiest way to run a PHP script / website

The situation: you wish to run a piece of standard PHP code (no dependency) like the one below:

<?php

echo "<h2>Incorrect, silent bug</h2>";

print_r(json_decode(utf8_decode("Ipso lorem"), true));

echo "<h2>Incorrect, we got an exception</h2>";

print_r(json_decode(utf8_decode("Ipso lorem"), true, 512, JSON_THROW_ON_ERROR));
