WSL is just a well integrated VM running Linux. It's mainly intended for CLI tools, but there's nothing preventing you from e.g. running an X server and having programs appear in the Windows "window manager".

The super key is largely inaccessible though. It's tied very deeply into Windows, which is still the one talking to the keyboard.
