WSL Setup

Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) provides a seamless way to run a Linux environment on Windows, enabling developers to work with Flexo SDK efficiently. This guide walks you through setting up WSL, installing dependencies, and running Flexo SDK on your Windows machine.

---

Prerequisites

Before installing Flexo SDK on WSL, ensure you have:

• Windows 10 (version 2004+) or Windows 11

• WSL 2 installed and configured

• Node.js and npm (or yarn) installed in WSL

---

Step 1: Install WSL

If you haven’t already set up WSL, install it using the following command in PowerShell (Admin):

wsl --install

This will:

Enable WSL 2

Install Ubuntu (default distribution)

To check the installed version, run:

wsl --list --verbose

If WSL is already installed but not using WSL 2, upgrade it:

wsl --set-version Ubuntu 2

---

Step 2: Set Up Your Development Environment

- Update Ubuntu

Once WSL is installed, open Ubuntu from the Start Menu and update the system:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

- Install Node.js and npm

To install Node.js (LTS) and npm, run:

curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt install -y nodejs

Verify installation:

node -v
npm -v

Alternatively, you can use nvm (Node Version Manager) for managing multiple Node.js versions:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bashrc
nvm install 18
nvm use 18

---

Step 3: Install Flexo SDK

With Node.js and Solana CLI installed, you can now install Flexo SDK:

npm install flexo-sdk
# or
yarn add flexo-sdk

---

Step 4: Run Flexo SDK

Now you can start using Flexo SDK inside WSL.

Example: Token Analysis

import FlexoClient from 'flexo-sdk';

async function analyzeToken(address: string) {
  const client = new FlexoClient();
  const analysis = await client.getToken(address);

  console.log(`Token Score: ${analysis.data.score}`);
}

analyzeToken('your-token-address');

Run the script with:

node script.js
