How do I install Nix on Windows?
the same way I'd recommend installing bash, wsl
This is exactly what I do. Windows to me is just Linux with extra steps.
Android is getting to the same point as Windows, just tried a Samsung a11+ and the native os appears hijacked by the manufacturer, but allows termux and termux-x11 to run Linux VMs
Great question!
Here’s the set of instructions that I’d consider fairly canonical at this moment in time:

That's WSL though. Not really Windows...
