I am a newbie to those things but I'm currently learning about Docker and Kubernetes, I've heard that it's best practice to set up my projects in WSL2 to avoid bugs and run the terminal from it, but in this way I can't make changes to the files with IntelliJ unless I somehow make my IntelliJ installed on windows find the WSL path.

Problem is that whenever I try to open a folder inside the WSL, my IntelliJ only gives me C: and D: as options, I don't see the wsl folder as u have there, why is that ?

I can't use WSL with Intelliji it always hangs it can't work properly as on windows, I am using intelliji community edition, plus I am trying to use it as an auto tests environment for Android devices is it possible to find a fix it is impossible to use it like that ? thnaks in advance.

The error with gradle wrapper as because of the version number. It should be 7.0.1 and not 7.01

Why didn't you install gradle on wsl by sdkman?

Are you running your IDEA in windows, but having source files from git repository on WSL2 Ubuntu? Is this a recommended approach and why? I am asking since there are ideas to run IDEA actually on WSL2 Ubuntu thru GWSL Tool, and...I do not like it. So I would just like to know what kind of problem are you solving with your IDEA setup?

I've had issues (and Im a student so Im really ignorant on all this stuff still) trying to run the newest Java 17 and Gradle 8 and opening Intellij through Ubuntu. the "Idea ." command doesn't work. I actually had to move all my files over to my windows side and use CMDER to get it to work, but honestly I really hate CMDER and I wish there was a way to get back to Ubuntu because I was getting really comfortable with using the linux side of things, not to mention I had all my projects organized in those folders. Now none of my Java apps will run and I think it might have something to do with my PC's Username.
