Description of the new feature/enhancement

Huge fan of Windows Terminal. My job needs me to use Linux(Ubuntu) though. Is there any way to cross compile to run on Linux? Maybe provide a release asset for Linux too?

Would be huge if Windows terminal could be run on a linux distro!! Thanks

This is answered in the FAQ:

What about porting the Windows Terminal to MacOS or Linux?

Windows Terminal requires a good number of Windows-specific technologies. We unfortunately won't be supporting it on Mac or anywhere else any time soon.
