Today I learned that IceStudio supports the ULX3S ! I thought I'd first try it in WSL Ubuntu.

I'm not sure if X-Windows server is needed, but I have some notes in a prior blog post to use cygwin  from WSL.

sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get upgrade 
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install npm
node -v
cd ~/workspace/
## see https://github.com/FPGAwars/icestudio#download
##
git clone https://github.com/FPGAwars/icestudio.git
cd icestudio
## Do we need to have an X-Windows server running?
##
export DISPLAY=:0 # you may wish you put in this your ~/.bashrc
cp /mnt/c/cygwin64/home/gojimmypi/.Xauthority   ~/.Xauthority
## test X-Windows
xclock
## ensure we are on the develop branch
##
git status 
npm install
npm start

Unforunately, this left me in a state of "waiting..."

For Windows, download the NodeJS and NPM. I did get it working, but see this icestudio GitHub issue #368 . More to come...
