| Lightpanda runs inside WSL when invoked from a WSL shell; follow the Linux install steps above in that environment. | |
| Install automation clients such as Puppeteer or Playwright on the Windows host so they can drive Lightpanda through CDP over the mapped ports. | |
| Lightpanda has no native Windows binary. Install it inside WSL following the Linux steps above. | |
| WSL not installed? Run from an **administrator** shell: `wsl --install`, restart, then `wsl`. | |
| See [Microsoft's WSL install guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install) for details. | |
| Your automation client (Puppeteer, Playwright, etc.) can run either inside WSL or on the Windows host — WSL forwards `localhost:9222` automatically. |
