Cannot install wasp
Hello guys! I'm trying to install wasp right now on my Windows computer by running this command
however I'm getting the error im attaching in this post. I've looked around tried changing things, versions of nvm, git bash etc... and cannot get past this error. Anyone else face the same thing?

Hey there is an Article guide to run wasp on Windows, this will of course require you to use WSL

@DirtyBirdy19 , I am just curious, as we often have people asking about how to install on windows -> which instructions did you follow to end up on that command above, without knowing how to install Wasp on windows? Was it via Mage, or via Wasp docs, or via OpenSaas, or something else? It seem we have a problem with not having Win instructions visible enough, so I am trying to figure out what we can fix.
I was following the instructions for OpenSaas. Faced the error and joined the discord from that link in the documentation, you guys are very helpful!

Awesome. Thank you!
Do you guys know if it will ever be fully accessible for native windows?
It certainly will be, we already did quite some effort in the past to get closer to it, but there are still some things to figure out and we didn't have time to do it. I think it will likely happen this year, depends on how our priorities will be shifting.
