Linux servers.
Windows dashboard.

Run and monitor servers inside any WSL distro — Ubuntu, Debian, Arch — from the Donk GUI on Windows. Same controls, same debug console.

Some projects need Linux. Your production server runs Ubuntu. Your deploy scripts assume bash. Your team uses Linux-native tools. On Windows, the answer is WSL — but managing servers inside WSL means opening a separate terminal, remembering the right distro, navigating the Linux filesystem, and losing all the GUI conveniences.

Donk detects installed WSL distributions and lets you run servers inside any of them. The server appears in the same dashboard as your Windows servers — same start/stop controls, same debug console, same resource monitoring. You configure it once and it works.

  • Auto-detects installed WSL distributions — Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, etc.
  • Run any server inside WSL from the Donk GUI
  • Same dashboard, same controls as native Windows servers
  • Linux filesystem paths in donk.toml/home/user/project
  • Debug console shows WSL output in real time
  • Environment variables and secrets injected into the WSL process
  • Mixed setups — some servers on Windows, some on WSL, all in one view
