A reproducible workflow for installing SageMath on Windows (WSL + Ubuntu 24.04)

### Problem Description Installing SageMath on Windows (via WSL) is currently complex for non‑expert users. The installation steps are fragmented across multiple sources, and there is no reproducible, automated workflow. ### Proposed Solution Copilot and I have developed a fully automated and reproducible installation workflow for SageMath on Windows using: - WSL - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - SageMath 10.8 (built from source) - JupyterLab and Jupyter Notebook - automatic kernel configuration - a Windows shortcut that launches SageMath Jupyter in one click The goal is to provide a modern, simple and reliable installation method for Windows users — especially students, teachers and newcomers who often struggle with the current instructions. ### Why this matters Windows users represent a large part of the SageMath audience, but the installation path is still fragmented and often confusing. WSL provides a clean Linux environment, and with automation, we can offer a turn‑key solution that works out of the box. ### What is available A complete guide is already published here: 👉 *https://ask.sagemath.org/question/88911/vibe-copilot-installation-of-sagemath-108-on-wsl-ubuntu-2404-windows-11/* It includes: - all PowerShell scripts - explanations - a ZIP archive - a reproducible workflow tested multiple times ### What we propose We would be happy to collaborate with maintainers to: - refine the workflow - align it with SageMath standards - integrate it into the official documentation - maintain it for future releases We believe this could significantly improve the Windows onboarding experience. Looking forward to your feedback. Best regards, **Jean‑Pierre & Copilot** ### Alternatives Considered I considered using the existing installation instructions scattered across the SageMath documentation, AskSage, However, none of them provide a complete, reproducible, and automated workflow for Windows users. ### Additional Information This workflow has been tested on a fresh Windows installation with WSL and Ubuntu 24.04. I can provide additional logs or details if needed. ### Is there an existing issue for this? - [x] I have searched the existing issues for a bug report that matches the one I want to file, without success.
